Subject: RE: [xsl] two columns in a table from one From: "Tim Watts" <timw@xxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 31 Jul 2001 11:31:17 +1000 |
Hi Matt, I had a simular problem which I asked on this list quite a while ago now. (Thanks to Jeni who gave me a template for creating muli-column tables). The example below is the one I used for a three column table... <xsl:template name="threecolumns"> <!-- this sorts the currencies into three columns --> <xsl:for-each select="people[position() mod 3 = 1]"> <tr> <xsl:variable name="others" select="following-sibling::option[position() < 3]" /> <xsl:for-each select=".|$others"> <td> <xsl:value-of select="person' /> </td> </xsl:for-each> <xsl:if test="count($others) < 2"> <td></td> <xsl:if test="not($others)"> <td></td> </xsl:if> </xsl:if> </tr> </xsl:for-each> <!-- end of sorting the currencies into three columns --> </xsl:template> The following would do the two column display you are after (however I have checked it for typos etc.) <xsl:template name="twocolumns"> <xsl:for-each select="people[position() mod 2 = 1]"> <tr> <xsl:variable name="others" select="following-sibling::option[position() < 2]" /> <xsl:for-each select=".|$others"> <td> <xsl:value-of select="person' /> </td> <xsl:if test="not($others)"> <td></td> </xsl:if> </xsl:if> </tr> </xsl:for-each> <!-- end of sorting the currencies into two columns --> </xsl:template> Cheers, Tim Watts :) -----Original Message----- From: Matthew Smith How can I turn a list of like named nodes into a two column html table with xslt? Here's some sample xml and desired html: <!-- XML --> <people> <person>John</person> <person>Suzy</person> </people> <!-- HTML --> <table> <tr><td>John</td><td>Suzy</td></tr> </table> The empty td element in the final row of odd numbered lists isn't imperative, but would be nice.
