Subject: Re: [xsl] Which XSL DTD to use and how do I find the depth of a node relative to the root? From: Jiri Jirat <Jiri.Jirat@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 21 Dec 2000 14:52:06 +0100 |
Hello Uri, ad 2), I send you a hint, how find the level of nesting. You must change it a little bit and extract the result using string functions. XML: <a> <b> <c/> </b> <b> <c> <d/> <d> <e/> </d> <d/> </c> </b> </a> XSL: (I will determine the level of nesting for /a/b[2] <?xml version="1.0"?> <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0"> <xsl:variable name="level"> <xsl:apply-templates select="b"/> </xsl:variable> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:apply-templates select="/a/b[2]"/> <xsl:value-of select="$level"/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="b"> <xsl:apply-templates select="descendant::*[not(*)]" mode="level"> <xsl:sort select="count(ancestor::*)" order="descending" data-type="number"/> </xsl:apply-templates> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="*" mode="level"> <xsl:value-of select="count(ancestor::*)"/> <xsl:text>~</xsl:text> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> And the output is: 4~3~3~ (you must extract the first number, this is the maximum) Best regards Jirka Uri Goldstein wrote: > > Hi There, > > I have two unrelated questions regarding XSL. > > One is which XSL DTD should I use - "http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl" > or "http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"?
