Subject: Re: [xsl] selecting boolean from a choose. From: Wendell Piez <wapiez@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 26 Aug 2002 19:01:13 -0400 |
Cheers, Wendell
I am interested setting a variable in my stylesheet to contain a boolean value. The value is set based on a choose statement inside the variable declaration, which looks for the existence or a particular node. I am only aware of being able to select text out of a choose statement, via the use of <xsl:text/> or <xsl:value-of/>. Is there a way to select true() of false(). Of course, I can use text values, such as 0 or 1, but I would like to use the built-in type if possible.
<!-- code which will set the variable to the string values of "true" or "false", not the booleans true() or false() --> <xsl:variable name="site-alert"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="/document/content-collection/site-alert"><xsl:value-of select="true()"/></xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise><xsl:value-of select="false()"/></xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:variable>
