Answer 1

Only write the comma if there is another cd element in your xml.

So basically you have to wrap that comma in a xsl:if statement like this: <xsl:if test="./following-sibling::cd">,</xsl:if>

So your stylesheet will look something like that:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
   <xsl:template match="/">
      {
"catalog":[
      <xsl:for-each select="catalog/cd">
         {"title":"
         <xsl:value-of select="title" />
         ",
"artist":"
         <xsl:value-of select="artist" />
         "}<xsl:if test="./following-sibling::cd">,</xsl:if>
      </xsl:for-each>
      ]
      }
   </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
