collecting with XSLT!

[Gunne]

I have the following xml data available:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
<LinkCategory Name="Hardware" >
<Link LinkName="hardw arelink1" LinkUrl="www.ms n.com"
PlusLink="False "/>
<Link LinkName="hardw arelink2" LinkUrl="www.ms n.com"
PlusLink="True"/>
<Link LinkName="hardw arelink3" LinkUrl="www.ms n.com"
PlusLink="True"/>
<Link LinkName="hardw arelink4" LinkUrl="www.ms n.com"
PlusLink="False "/>
<Link LinkName="hardw arelink5" LinkUrl="www.ms n.com"
PlusLink="True"/>
</LinkCategory>
<LinkCategory Name="Software" >
<Link LinkName="Softw arelink1" LinkUrl="www.ms n.com"
PlusLink="False "/>
<Link LinkName="Softw arelink2" LinkUrl="www.ms n.com"
PlusLink="True"/>
<Link LinkName="Softw arelink3" LinkUrl="www.ms n.com"
PlusLink="False "/>
<Link LinkName="Softw arelink4" LinkUrl="www.ms n.com"
PlusLink="False "/>
<Link LinkName="Softw arelink5" LinkUrl="www.ms n.com"
PlusLink="True"/>
</LinkCategory>
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

And i want to use some kind of Select/test thats collets the links
with the "PlusLink" set to "True".

I need the output to look like this:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
David's Plus hardware links:
hardwarelink2
hardwarelink3
hardwarelink5

Other Hardware links:
hardwarelink1
hardwarelink4

David's Plus software links:
Softwarelink2
Softwarelink5

Other software links:
Softwarelink1
Softwarelink3
Softwarelink4
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Please help me!

If you want text output then you need
<xsl:output method="text" />
then it is not difficult to write xsl:for-each loops to output the stuff:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:styleshe et
xmlns:xsl="http ://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">

<xsl:output method="text" />

<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:text>David 's Plus hardware links:
</xsl:text>
<xsl:for-each select="Links/LinkCategory[@Name =
'Hardware']/Link[@PlusLink = 'True']">
<xsl:value-of select="@LinkNa me" />
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
<xsl:text>Oth er Hardware links:
</xsl:text>
<xsl:for-each select="Links/LinkCategory[@Name =
'Hardware']/Link[@PlusLink != 'True']">
<xsl:value-of select="@LinkNa me" />
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
<xsl:text>David 's Plus software links:
</xsl:text>
<xsl:for-each select="Links/LinkCategory[@Name =
'Software']/Link[@PlusLink = 'True']">
<xsl:value-of select="@LinkNa me" />
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
<xsl:text>Oth er software links:
</xsl:text>
<xsl:for-each select="Links/LinkCategory[@Name =
'Software']/Link[@PlusLink != 'True']">
<xsl:value-of select="@LinkNa me" />
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Note that I have assumed there to be a root element named <Links> as the
parent element of the <LinkCategory > elements.
