    Loop this code 10 times

    Hi all

    I want to create a dropdownboxs with the 10 next coming week numbers. Basically I want to repeat this code X number of times:

    <xsl:variable name="daysInFuture">P<xsl:value-of select="number(7 * position())"/>D</xsl:variable>
    <li><href="/details.aspx?fromdate={umbraco.library:Replace(umbraco.library:FormatDateTime(Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes:add($thisDate, 'P7D'), 'M-d-yyyy'), '-', '%2f')}">
      Week <xsl:value-of select="Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes:weekinyear(Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes:add($thisDate, $daysInFuture))"/></a></li>

    Right now I am here:

    <xsl:variable name="weeksInFuture" select="'10'"/>
    <xsl:variable name="thisWeek" select="Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes:weekinyear()"/>
    <xsl:variable name="thisDate" select="Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes:date()"/>
        
    <xsl:template match="/">
      <p><xsl:value-of select="$weeksInFuture"/><br /><xsl:value-of select="$thisWeek"/><br /><xsl:value-of select="$thisDate"/></p>
      <ul>
        <xsl:for-each select=" ??? ">
          <xsl:apply-templates />
        </xsl:for-each>
      </ul>
    </xsl:template>
        
    <xsl:template match="/">
      <xsl:variable name="daysInFuture">P<xsl:value-of select="number(7 * position())"/>D</xsl:variable>
      <li><href="/details.aspx?fromdate={umbraco.library:Replace(umbraco.library:FormatDateTime(Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes:add($thisDate, 'P7D'), 'M-d-yyyy'), '-', '%2f')}">
          Week <xsl:value-of select="Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes:weekinyear(Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes:add($thisDate, $daysInFuture))"/></a></li>
    </xsl:template>

    But I don't know how to provoke a loop, with having something to loop through...?

    Hi Kasper,

    For this, you would usually use a recursive template (one that calls itself, unless some condition is met).

    Simple example:

    <xsl:template match="/">
        <!-- Start repeating -->
        <xsl:call-template name="repeatable" />
    </xsl:template>
    
    <xsl:template name="repeatable">
        <xsl:param name="index" select="1" />
        <xsl:param name="total" select="10" />
    
        <!-- Do something -->
    
        <xsl:if test="not($index = $total)">
            <xsl:call-template name="repeatable">
                <xsl:with-param name="index" select="$index + 1" />
            </xsl:call-template>
        </xsl:if>
    </xsl:template>

    Change the weeksInFuture variable like so:

    <xsl:variable name="weeksInFuture" select="'1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10'"/>

    and now the for each loop can be:

    <xsl:for-each select="Exslt.ExsltStrings:split($weeksInFuture,',')">
