How to do Grouping of Workbooks using XSL in Discoverer Viewer?

Question

Hello Discoverer Experts,
My question is related to grouping of workbook names using XSL in Discoverer Viewer. This is a sample xml data file which contains 6 workbooks.
<eul>
     <workbooks>
          <workbook>
               <wb_name>Purchasing Workbook 1</wb_name>
               <worksheets>
                    <worksheet>
                         <ws_name>A</ws_name>
                    </worksheet>
                    <worksheet>
                         <ws_name>B</ws_name>
                    </worksheet>
               </worksheets>
          </workbook>
          <workbook>
               <wb_name>Purchasing Workbook 2</wb_name>
               <worksheets>
                    <worksheet>
                         <ws_name>C</ws_name>
                    </worksheet>
                    <worksheet>
                         <ws_name>D</ws_name>
                    </worksheet>
               </worksheets>
          </workbook>
          <workbook>
               <wb_name>Manufacturing Workbook 1</wb_name>
               <worksheets>
                    <worksheet>
                         <ws_name>E</ws_name>
                    </worksheet>
                    <worksheet>
                         <ws_name>F</ws_name>
                    </worksheet>
               </worksheets>
          </workbook>
          <workbook>
               <wb_name>Manufacturing Workbook 2</wb_name>
               <worksheets>
                    <worksheet>
                         <ws_name>G</ws_name>
                    </worksheet>
                    <worksheet>
                         <ws_name>H</ws_name>
                    </worksheet>
               </worksheets>
          </workbook>
          <workbook>
               <wb_name>CEO Workbook 1</wb_name>
               <worksheets>
                    <worksheet>
                         <ws_name>I</ws_name>
                    </worksheet>
                    <worksheet>
                         <ws_name>J</ws_name>
                    </worksheet>
               </worksheets>
          </workbook>
          <workbook>
               <wb_name>CEO Workbook 2</wb_name>
               <worksheets>
                    <worksheet>
                         <ws_name>K</ws_name>
                    </worksheet>
                    <worksheet>
                         <ws_name>L</ws_name>
                    </worksheet>
               </worksheets>
          </workbook>
     </workbooks>
</eul>
The XSL is generating a List of Workbooks in <table> by using <xsl:for-each select="eul/workbooks/workbook">
<table>
<tr><td>Purchasing Workbook 1</td></tr>
<tr><td>Purchasing Workbook 2</td></tr>
<tr><td>Manufacturing Workbook 1</td></tr>
<tr><td>Manufacturing Workbook 2</td></tr>
<tr><td>CEO Workbook 1</td></tr>
<tr><td>CEO Workbook 2</td></tr>
</table>
Now my question is:
1. The client want to see this report in Groups i.e
<table>
<tr><th>Group Name: Purchasing</th></tr>
<tr><td>Purchasing Workbook 1</td></tr>
<tr><td>Purchasing Workbook 2</td></tr>
</table>
<table>
<tr><th>Group Name: Manufacturing</th></tr>
<tr><td>Manufacturing Workbook 1</td></tr>
<tr><td>Manufacturing Workbook 2</td></tr>
</table>
<table>
<tr><th>Group Name: CEO</th></tr>
<tr><td>CEO Workbook 1</td></tr>
<tr><td>CEO Workbook 2</td></tr>
</table>
How can I achieve this grouping using XSL ? Has anybody tried customizing the XSL file to achieve grouping of workbooks by name?
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Warm Regards,

Hi Friends..
This is not the reply.
I have also some question..
Some related topic I found on this.
That's why I am posting the same question here also..
Dear friends..
I need help to customize our discoverer viewer.
We are creating work sheets in arial font size 8.
But, when it's viewing through discoverer viewer it's coming big size.
If we saw the source code by right click, it's taking some style sheets where
the font size is mentioned as 8. not 8px.
How I can modify the work sheets in viewer.
Exactly which tag I should modify for this.
And the other thing is the heading section is coming something as
jung.
