<w:body>

    <w:p> <!-- index 0 -->
        <w:pPr>

    <w:p>  <!-- index 2 -->
        <w:pPr>

            </w:t>
        </w:r>
    </w:p>

</w:body>
</w:document>   

So, Now i want to calculate following two things

1.Count starting index position of element that having <w:pStyle> value starting with “TOC”.Here it starting in first<w:p> element(Assume index starting from ‘0’).so, i want following output

2.Total number of that having <w:pStyle> value starting with “TOC”.I have count this by following expression.So, Please Guide me to get first one…

<xsl:attribute name="totalTOC">
   <xsl:value-of select="count(//w:body/w:p[w:pPr[w:pStyle[starts-with(@w:val,'TOC')]]])"/>
<xsl:attribute> 

My Required output is:

<Document>
<TOC startIndex="1" totalTOC="3"/>
</Document>

Answer 1

You can use the preceding-sibling axis as such:

count(//w:body/w:p[w:pPr[w:pStyle[starts-with(@w:val,'TOC')]]][1]/preceding-sibling::*).

This will select the first element that meets your criteria and return the count of its preceding siblings (the current index). For a one-based index, simply add 1.
