I need to assign a variable once when the first node of many similar nodes appear. My end goal is trying to call the same template over and over from within the main template while storing variables and incrementing them.
Example XML:
<!-- Removed See below examples -->
Example XSL:
<!-- Removed See below examples -->
I will do my best to explain what's going on:
$value is referenced from the main template that matches on /ROOT. The output XML needs to have an index on FILE_ITEM_NBR that is incremental everytime it is created. FILE_ITEM_NBR will be generated once outside of the loop and can be staticically set to 1. The other times it's generated are based upon the number of invoices and in this example it's twice per invoice for 3 invoices.
Im using the text from /ROOT/INVOICES/INVOICES_ROW/INV_ID as my starting number, because the number after the hypenated(-) portion of the value is generated based on row number.
I need to grab this number the first time through the loop and populate $value. Any other time I need to reference that number add a static number to it such as its occurrence in the XSL transformation. In the example I show $value + 2 and $value + 3. Then I need to store that value so that each time the loop iterates I keep adding to it.
I hope this explanation was good enough.
In short I need FILE_ITEM_NBR to be uniquely generated every time it appears during the XSL transformation.

I have modified the above XML and XSL examples. The following examples run and the output provided is generated.

The generated output is what I need to achieve in my real case scenario, however after each invoice the number is behind by 1.
