You cannot increment a number using (x = x + 1) as you can in most
languages, however you can use the position() function as a counter in
many cases.
For example:
<xsl:valueOf select="position()"/>
The alternative to this is to use a recursive template, which is a bit
more tricky.
Hope that helps,

Hi Guys,
This is a newbie question.
I have an XSL which reads in some of value from xml using Document()
function and some some <XSL:PARM>. I'm using <fo:block> to display the
content in a block.
Simply what I want to do is create a counter that will increment for my each
<FO:BLOCK>i.e.
<fo:block>
<display counter value>
<xsl:valueOf select="$param1"/>
</fo:block>
<fo:block>
<display counter value>
<xsl:valueOf select="document(somexml.xml)/note1"/>
</fo:block>
etc.
Please help? - I've tried the below code but it doesn't work:
<xsl:parm name="counter" select="1"/>
<some template>
<fo:block>
<xsl:with-parm name="counter" select="$counter + 1"/>
<xsl:valueOf select="$counter"/> - this return 1 instead of 2
</some template>
