Subject: [xsl] recursions? From: Dennis Luemkemann <dll@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 20 Jun 2001 12:47:39 -0400 |
I have an XML source like this (simplified): ... <parent> <field> <group> <field/> <group> <field/> </group> <field/> ... </group> <field/> ... </parent> ... where the order of field and group elements is variable and the nesting of groups can be infinite. The order of appearance in the tree is very important. Now I'm using a for-each descendant::* construct from the parent node to process all elements. This works fine as long as I just want a "flat" output. But I want a hierarchical output, somewhat like this: FIELD blabla, blabla GROUP blabla FIELD blabla, blabla FIELD .... GROUP ... FIELD ... FIELD ... Since the template doesn't know in which level of the hierarchy it is, it can't indent the output correctly. How would you do this? Is there a way to recursively traverse the nodes? So when I'm at a group node, it would call a template to check again for group and field and branch off from there recursively? Thanks for any suggestions Dennis XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
