pagination in xsl

Question

I have an xml file and also an xsl file which I wrote for it to generate html. my xml file is:

Answer 1

I. Here is a small example showing how to implement "paging"

Given this source XML document:

  01
  02
  03
  04
  05
  06
  07
  08
  09
  10

and given a pagesize of 3, this XSLT 1.0 transformation:

produces:

   
      01
      02
      03
   
   
      04
      05
      06
   
   
      07
      08
      09
   
   
      10
   

Do note:

It isn't possible by only using pure XSLT 1.0 to produce more than one result document by a single transformation.

You can either use XSLT 2.0 and its xsl:result-document instruction, or an XSLT 1.0 processor that implements EXSLT's extension element. Another alternative is to initiate a separate XSLT 1.0 transformation for every output page.

II. Paging with XSLT 2.0

When this transformation is applied on the same XML document (above). it successfully creates four result documents.
