Subject: Re: [xsl] attribute selection From: "G. Ken Holman" <gkholman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 07 Apr 2005 16:22:08 -0300 |
<elem1> <property name="name1" value="value1" /> <property name="name2" value="value2" /> </elem1>
...with many such property elements inside the elem1 element.
I want to print the value of the 'value' attribute for the property element that has a name of 'name1'. So far I've been doing it this way:
<xsl:for-each select="./elem1/property[./@name='name1']"> <b><xsl:value-of select="@value"/></b> </xsl:for-each>
But it seems like there should be a more concise way of doing this, especially since I know that my input document will only have one property element with a matching "@name='name1'" attribute.
<xsl:key name="props" match="property" use="@name"/> ... <b><xsl:value-of select="key('props','name1')/@value"/></b>
