"only problem is that I have to do everything by hand"

That's no problem at all, unless your hand is broken (and if so you can learn to use your other hand).

First you should try to figure out what the heck you're trying to do, because you certainly don't explain it here.
After that you should figure out what XSLT actually is as you seem to think it's some kind of magic bullet that just does everything all the time.

Hello Julie,

XSL will basically be the hard-coded part to style XML. You can't assume that XSL will somehow turn image attributes into images.

So for example your line:

will have to look something like:

... or

What I usually do is create an HTML and then convert all that HTML including repeaters into logical XSL.

It's important to note that you want an optimum performance. Maybe, XSLT is not the best solution in some cases. Choosing between client side or server side XSLT is also an important step.

I hope that helps!
