How to select each child node of a parent in a for-each xslt statement?

Question

I want to select all child nodes from the adviceRow element (see xml data hereunder) in a for each loop.

I want to avoid having to write an xslt file like this:

<

Yes, you can nest for-each loops.

Try this

<xsl:for-each select="Tables/routeAdviceTable/routeAdviceRows/adviceRow">
  <xsl:for-each select="./*">
    <!-- 
      Your code i.e.
      <td class="{name(.)}">
        <xsl:value-of select="."></xsl:value-of>
      </td>
    -->
  </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:for-each>

The xpath "." refers to the current node (a.k.a the “context node”), "/*" select all the child nodes of the context node.
