Subject: Re: [xsl] xsl:variable within xsl:choose. Why doesn't that work? And what does? From: David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 17 May 2001 13:26:55 +0100 |
xsl:variable works inside xsl:choose in exactly the way it works anywhere else: its scope is the containing element: so in <xsl:when test="do a test"> <xsl:variable name="aVar" select="when var"/> </xsl:when> the variable is defined up to the </xsl:when>. You are not trying to define different variable depending on a condition, you are trying to define one variable, with a value which depends on a condition. So it is more natural (and works) to give the condition as the value to the variable binding: <xsl:variable name="aVar"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="do a test">... </xsl:choose> </xsl:variable> David _____________________________________________________________________ This message has been checked for all known viruses by Star Internet delivered through the MessageLabs Virus Scanning Service.
