RE: [xsl] Implementing XPointer Resolution With saxon:evaluate()

["Dion Houston" <dionh@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Eliot:

It'd be eminently helpful to have your XML here, but I see some issues
already with some of the things you've done:


      <xsl:text>ID of ultimate target: </xsl:text>
      <xsl:variable name="members">
        <xsl:call-template name="resolve-xpointer"/>
      </xsl:variable>
      <xsl:for-each select="$members">

In this case, your variable "members" is calling a specific template.
In this case, the result is an RTF, and therefore you cannot do a
for-each.  You will need to use your favorite RTF->Nodeset function to
be able to iterate through this.

For your other question:

     <xsl:for-each select="$direct-result">
        <xsl:choose>
          <xsl:when test="xindr:indirector">
            <!-- Never gets here -->

The reason for this one is that the _context_ node as you indicate at
the when element is xindr:indirector.  Keep in mind that your test here
translates to:

<xsl:when test="child::xindr:indirector">

Therefore it is looking to see if your xindr:indirector element has a
child which is also xindr:indirector.  Probably what you want is:

<xsl:when test="self::xindr:indirector">

Otherwise, please pass a few more details.  Looks like you're doing
interesting things!
