The first one is a FAQ and you can find it in many places, just these
days there was one at TopXML.com (sure, you don't need DOE at all, <tr>
is a node, not just string). I also remember doing one at the time that
combined creating a multi-column table with adding alternating colours
to the rows -- could find it if this would be useful.
For the second request -- see my article "Casting the Dice with FXSL:
Random Number Generation Functions in XSLT" at:
http://www.topxml.com/xsl/articles/dice/default.asp
Hope this helped.
Cheers,
