    Looping whole site for a certain doctype

    Ok so on the site I am building it has several different "news" sections.  For reasons I don't want to get into I need to have these "news" articles in different locations (see example below)

    home
    - page
    - - news landing
    - - - news article 1
    - - - news article 2
    - page
    - page
    - - news landing
    - - - news article 3
    - page
    - - news landing
    - - - news article 4
    - - - news article 5

    All of the "news articles" are a doctype called "Article" how would I loop through the whole site and pull all of the "Article" doctypes? I searched around and tried a few different options but just can't seem to figure it out.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you,
    Tony

    Hi Tony

    This snippet should do the trick:

    <xsl:template match="/">
      <xsl:variable name="root" select="$currentPage/ancestor-or-self::*[@level='1']" />
      <xsl:apply-templates select="$root//Article" />
    </xsl:template>

    <xsl:tempalte match="Article">
      <xsl:value-of select="@nodeName" /><br/>
    </xsl:template>

    No problem Tony.

    Of course you could use a for-each instead of the apply-templates, but that's up to you. I'd go for the apply-templates version though.
