Thanks Brian
In my case i don't know the number elements <b> in the XML (it can vary)
for. e.g
I can have
<a>
   <b src="${myapp1.dir}/common/jsp" target="${myapp2.dir}/common/jsp"/ >
   <b src="${myapp1.dir}/common/jsp" target="${myapp4.dir}/common/jsp"/ >
   <b src="${myapp2.dir}/common/jsp" target="${myapp5.dir}/common/jsp"/ >
   <b src="${myapp2.dir}/common/jsp" target="${myapp5.dir}/common/jsp"/ >
</a>

or just

<a>
   <b src="${myapp1.dir}/common/jsp" target="${myapp2.dir}/common/jsp"/ >
</a>
