Subject: NEWBIE Question From: Chuck Darney <cdarney@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 31 Dec 1997 14:51:31 -0500 |
I'm trying to fumble my way through DSSSL by looking at the variuos online tutorials, PD samples, etc. I've been able to figure out some of the things I need to know from these, but am still mostly lost. I'm currently trying to do something I know is simple but I must be making more of than I should. I want to output an address as an address. The DTD has the address defined as several elements (NAME, DIV, CITY, STATE, ZIP, etc) and the SGM instance makes use of these elements. How does the DSSSL combine several of these elements on a single line with the appropriate punctuation and spacing (city, state zip)? I've done so by using: (element CITY (make sequence (process-children-trim) (literal ", "))) ditto for the state and zip (except no literal for the zip. There MUST be an easier way. Are there other samples of "common formatting" that are available? Much appreciation for this list. I'd be COMPLETELY lost without it. Thanks much. ...Chuck Darney ...cdarney@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx DSSSList info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/dsssl/dssslist
