XML and XSL

how the heck...?

[httpwebwitch]

I have some XML (which I can not control, it's fed to me), and I want to format it using XSL.

My XML looks kinda like this:

<things>
<doodads>
<grommit type="plastic"/>
<grommit type="metal" />
<grommit type="wood" />
<grommit type="silly putty" />
</doodads>
</things>

What I need to do is display something like this:
- my plastic grommit
- my metal grommit
- my wood grommit
- my silly putty grommit

Ideally I'd like this XSL to work on the server, so I can use ASP to transform it:
xml.transformNode(xsl)

I've been hacking through tutorials on the <xsl:for-each > and <xsl:value-of> for a long time, and still nothing is working. I'm at my wit's end.
HELP!

Have you looked at the examples in this tutorial?

Hello httpwebwitch,

Is it something like this you are looking for?

<xsl:for-each select="doodads/grommit">
- my <xsl:value-of select="@type"/> grommit<fo:block/>
</xsl:for-each>

This example goes on your <things> being the report-root and your document starting with <xsl:template match="things">

What is the context? For instance, it might be better to use

<xsl:template match="things">
<ul>
<xsl:apply-templates select="doodads/grommit" />
</ul>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="grommit">
<li>
<xsl:text>my </xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="@type" />
<xsl:text> grommit</xsl:text>
</li>
</xsl:template>
