Subject: RE: [xsl] Using XSL for a "world records" table From: "Michael Kay" <mhk@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 18 May 2003 18:04:40 +0100 |
Hopefully someone will offer you an XSLT 1.0 solution, but I'd just like to observe that all three requirements are really easy in XSLT 2.0. The first one is handled by xsl:for-each-group; the second by testing $date > (current-date() - xs:dayTimeDuration('PT14D')); and the third by format-time().

In this case, they should both have "1" in the "Place" column. My current approach fails: when I sort on the time column and use the value of position() for place, it unfairly gives one of them second place. Is there another way? - recent records are given a yellow background so they stand out. To do this, I need to test if the record date is greater-than 14 days ago. My current idea for this is to store dates in yyyymmdd format, and pass the date of 14 days ago as an xsl parameter. Then colour yellow each record if its date is greater than the parameter. Can anyone think of a better way that doesn't require such a parameter? - the time field needs to be formatted for any value from hundredths of a second up to days or years. Will I need to write my own extension function to do the formatting, or does one exist already?
