Hi, 

Im using the umbraco.tv news area, news item tutorial. 

I have a site that has a general news area, but i would like to filter and show only relevent news articles based on shop location.

Im still new to XSLT, so any help would be grateful

my xslt for my news item is 

<xsl:param name="currentPage"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<!-- The fun starts here -->
<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage [@isDoc and string(umbracoNaviHide) != '1']">
<div class="twelve columns alpha">
  <h2 class="col newsHeadline">
      <xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/>
  </h2>
  <xsl:if test="newsSummary != ''">
    <p class="newsAuthor"><xsl:value-of select="newsAuthor" disable-output-escaping="yes"/></p>
  </xsl:if>    
    <p class="newsDate"><xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:FormatDateTime(@createDate, 'MMM d, yyyy')"/></p>
  <xsl:if test="newsArticle != ''">  
    <p class="newsArticle"><xsl:value-of select="newsArticle" disable-output-escaping="yes"/></p>  
  </xsl:if>  
</div>  

</xsl:for-each>

</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

And my News Area is

<xsl:param name="currentPage"/>
<xsl:variable name="itemsPerPage" select="5"/>
<xsl:variable name="numberOfItems" select="count($currentPage/* [@isDoc and string(umbracoNaviHide) != '1'])"/>
<xsl:variable name="pageNumber">
  <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="umbraco.library:RequestQueryString('page') =''">
      <xsl:value-of select="1"/>
    </xsl:when>
    <xsl:otherwise>
      <xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:RequestQueryString('page')"/>
    </xsl:otherwise>
  </xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>

<!-- day -->    
<xsl:variable name="newsDay">
  <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="umbraco.library:RequestQueryString('page') =''">
      <xsl:value-of select="1"/>
    </xsl:when>
    <xsl:otherwise>
      <xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:RequestQueryString('page')"/>
    </xsl:otherwise>
  </xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>
    


<xsl:template match="/">

<!-- The fun starts here -->
<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/* [@isDoc and string(umbracoNaviHide) != '1']">
<xsl:sort select="@createDate" order="descending"/>

    <p><xsl:value-of select="newsSummary" disable-output-escaping="yes"/></p>
