An XSLT 1.0 solution that uses key
and the generate-id()
function to get distinct values:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet
version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:key name="product" match="/items/item/products/product/text()" use="." />
<xsl:template match="https://stackoverflow.com/">
<xsl:for-each select="/items/item/products/product/text()[generate-id()
= generate-id(key('product',.)[1])]">
<li>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</li>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
