The issue am having is that I can't seem to make it display both the result set template and the report template, further more its not applying the CSS. I did have a working copy that just needed muenchian grouping implementing but I took 1 step forward and 5 steps back attempting this :P

EDIT: Okay so the CSS is now working. Although its not retrieving the correct values from the xml.

EDIT: fixed those issues

XML:

<report created="2013-12-02 13:38:42.15" pluginname="sal">
<percentages manualcheck="0" pRecommendation="0" potential="69" recommendation="0" violation="30"/>
<resultset created="2013-12-02 13:38:42.15" link="writers_reports/" manualcheck="0" name="" pRecommendation="0" potential="229" recommendation="0" violation="100"/>
<issue filename="rpt_automation.html" gid="506" helplink="" infocenterURL="" level="Potential Violation" linenum="63" message="Ensure that, with the border or outline, the keyboard focus indicator is visible to users." xpath="/html/body/div[3]/img"/>
<issue filename="rpt_summary.html" gid="506" helplink="" infocenterURL="" level="Potential Violation" linenum="61" message="Ensure that, with the border or outline, the keyboard focus indicator is visible to users." xpath="/html/body/div[3]/img"/>
<issue filename="scan_results.html" gid="506" helplink="" infocenterURL="" level="Potential Violation" linenum="50" message="Ensure that, with the border or outline, the keyboard focus indicator is visible to users." xpath="/html/body/div[3]/img"/>
<issue filename="what_is_rpt.html" gid="506" helplink="" infocenterURL="" level="Potential Violation" linenum="49" message="Ensure that, with the border or outline, the keyboard focus indicator is visible to users." xpath="/html/body/div[3]/img"/>

What do you mean by "Fixed those issues"? That your post no longer requires an answer? If not, what is the issue that persists? — Mathias Müller, Dec 03 '13 at 14:55
The css now displays, am trying to implement hover at the moment in my css to make the entire row change colour giving a highlight effect and underline the first cell. but my main question is, if i wanted to create tables with the grouping of filename and level how would i quite do that? — user2983601, Dec 03 '13 at 15:10
It's rather hard to help without any indication of how the input XML is structured. But on a more general note: if you're asking how to do multiple grouping, you already have plenty of answers on this on SO - hundreds, I'd say. — Mathias Müller, Dec 03 '13 at 15:15
Am looking at this specific one, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/948218/xslt-3-level-grouping-on-attributes/955527#955527. But I don't quite understand what's going on. — user2983601, Dec 03 '13 at 15:15
In your templates I cannot see that you attempted to do Muenchian grouping. We expect that you at least try this yourself. Start by understanding one-level grouping with a key - otherwise there is no point in trying to group by multiple elements. Last remark: If you use XSLT 2.0 there is absolutely no need for Muenchian grouping. — Mathias Müller, Dec 03 '13 at 15:35
I would use xsl 2.0 but browsers don't support it yet. am attempting to do just by name am attempting to group the data ive posted above. — user2983601, Dec 03 '13 at 15:38

Use the following process to add Muenchian grouping to your template:

Create an xsl:key with an arbitrary name attribute and a match attribute which corresponds to the subset of nodes you want to group
Set the use attribute to the node that you want to group by to create an index
Use one of the following techniques to find unique nodes:
- Use generate-id on both the current node and the first node in the group
- Compare the generate-id of a selected node with the generate-id of the first node in the group to which your selected node belongs
- Compare the count of the nodes in the set formed by the union of a selected node and the first node in the group: if it equals 1, they're the same node
