Hi Rachel

To list immediate child nodes you do something like this:

<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/node [@nodeTypeAlias = 'recipe']"/>

To go further down the content tree you have to extend the $curentpage/node query to include more, e.g. by adding more specifiers:

<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/node [@nodeTypeAlias = 'recipes']/node [@nodeTypeAlias = 'recipe']
"/>

To include subchilds in any subpage you could do:

<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/descendant::node [@nodeTypeAlias = 'recipe']"/>

Hope this helped

depends on what you want to achieve. If you want to output a nested list use something like that:

<ul>
   <xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/node">
       <li>
            <xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/>
          <xsl:if test="count(node) &gt; 0">
              <ul>
                    <xsl:for-each select="node">
                        <li>
                            <xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/>
                      </li>
                   </xsl:for-each>
             </ul>
           </xsl:if>
       </li>
   </xsl:for-each>
</ul>

hth, Thomas

Thanks for all your speedy responses.

The code Dirk provided was exactly what I needed

<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/parent::node/node">

and the Wiki page is a great resource, I'll also be reading up on Doug's introductions to xslt.

Many thanks,

Rachel
