Solved: recursive calls in XSLT/XML

[Clemens Tolboom]

From the following document I want to create a tree, i.e. find all parent-id matching nodes.

<root>
  <node parent="0" id="1" name="Top" />
  <node parent="1" id="2" name="Below Top 1st" />
  <node parent="1" id="3" name="Below Top 2ed" />
  <node parent="2" id="4" name="Below Below Top 1st" />
</root>

I tried to do

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
 
<xsl:template match="root">
  <xsl:apply-templates />
</xsl:template>
 
<xsl:template match="root">
  <xsl:apply-templates select="node[parent=0]" />
</xsl:template>
 
<xsl:template match="node">
  Parent: <xsl:value-of select="parent"/>
  Id: <xsl:value-of select="id"/>
  Name: <xsl:value-of select="name"/>
 
HERE IT GOES WRONG (in different forms)
  <xsl:apply-templates select="/root/node[parent=node()/id]" />
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

The recursive call tries to select only node(s) whoes parent matches the current node-id.

Any suggestion how to solve this?

Tanx.

Using attributes but matching nodes isn't working. (@id instead of id)
