Hi, Please find below the xsl stylesheet that does what you want. Since you want 1 select box for each AC_Request in your source xml, there has to be a distinguishing factor in your source xml. I could only find that the time differed in the RequestDate attribute in the 3 AC_Request elements. Therefore I have used the concatenation of the RequestDate and the result of the generate-id function as the value of each option. The only problem I can foresee is due to the ever-changing nature of time, the option values too would keep changing resulting in your having to change your server side programs each time the source xml changes. I would suggest you add another attribute to that is unique across AC_REQUEST and is more deterministic. Hope this helps. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl ="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="html" indent="yes" encoding="utf-8" doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" doctype-system ="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd" /> <xsl:variable name="priorities" select="document ('priority.xml')" /> <xsl:template match="/"> <html> <head> <title>Test</title> </head> <body> <form action="transform.aspx" method="post"> <table border="1" cellpadding="4"> <tr> <td><strong>Request Date</strong></td> <td><strong>Change Title</strong></td> <td><strong>Status</strong></td> <td><strong>Action</strong></td> </tr> <xsl:for-each select ="/AC_Requests/AC_Request"> <xsl:variable name="acreq" select ="."/> <tr> <td><xsl:value-of select="@RequestDate" /></td> <td><xsl:value-of select="@ChangeTitle" /></td> <td><xsl:value-of select="@StatusID" /></td> <td> <label for ="action">Priority: </label> <select id ="action" name="action"> <option value="0">Select an action</option> <xsl:for-each select="$priorities/priorities/priority"> <xsl:message><td><xsl:value-of select="concat(normalize-space ($acreq/@RequestDate), generate-id(.))" /></td></xsl:message> <option value="{concat(generate-id(.), normalize-space ($acreq/@RequestDate))}"><xsl:value-of select="@priority" /></option> </xsl:for-each> </select> <input type ="submit" name="submit" value="Go" /> </td> </tr> </xsl:for-each> </table> </form> </body> </html> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> Cheers, Omprakash.V Jeremy Marzka <jmarzka@gmai To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx l.com> cc: (bcc: omprakash.v/Polaris) Subject: [xsl] Unique html name, id, and for form fields 05/11/2005 02:00 AM Please respond to xsl-list I am working on creating an html report from two xml sources. The first source is the xml that needs to be displayed in the report. The second source is used to populate a select box. The problem i'm having is with the multiple for-each's necessary to do this. In the for-each's I need to generate unique id's, name's and for's in a way that they can be processed server side later. Here is what I currently have: ----test.xsl---- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl=" http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="html" indent="yes" encoding="utf-8" doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" doctype-system=" http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd" /> <xsl:variable name="priorities" select="document ('priorities.xml')" /> <xsl:template match="/"> <html> <head> <title>Test</title> </head> <body> <form action="transform.aspx" method="post"> <table border="1" cellpadding="4"> <tr> <td><strong>Request Date</strong></td> <td><strong>Change Title</strong></td> <td><strong>Status</strong></td> <td><strong>Action</strong></td> </tr> <xsl:for-each select ="/AC_Requests/AC_Request"> <tr> <td><xsl:value-of select="@RequestDate" /></td> <td><xsl:value-of select="@ChangeTitle" /></td> <td><xsl:value-of select="@StatusID" /></td> <td> <label for ="action">Priority: </label> <select id ="action" name="action"> <option value="0">Select an action</option> <xsl:for-each select="$priorities/priorities/priority"> <option value="{@priority_id}"><xsl:value-of select="@priority" /></option> </xsl:for-each> </select> <input type ="submit" name="submit" value="Go" /> </td> </tr> </xsl:for-each> </table> </form> </body> </html> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> ---- test.xml ---- <?xml version="1.0"?> <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="test.xsl"?> <AC_Requests> <AC_Request RequestDate="2005-03-09 9:11:56" ChangeTitle="test" StatusID="3"/> <AC_Request RequestDate="2005-03-09 9:12:44" ChangeTitle="test" StatusID="3"/> <AC_Request RequestDate="2005-03-09 9:14:15" ChangeTitle="test" StatusID="2"/> </AC_Requests> ---- priorities.xml ---- <?xml version="1.0"?> <priorities> <priority priority_id="1" priority="Hold"/> <priority priority_id="2" priority="High"/> <priority priority_id="3" priority="Med"/> <priority priority_id="4" priority="Low"/> </priorities> ---- OUTPUT ---- <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html> <head> <META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> <title>Test</title> </head> <body> <form action="transform.aspx" method="post"> <table border="1" cellpadding="4"> <tr> <td> <strong>Request Date</strong> </td> <td> <strong>Change Title</strong> </td> <td> <strong>Status</strong> </td> <td> <strong>Priority</strong> </td> <td> <strong>Action</strong> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>2005-03-09 9:11:56</td> <td>test</td> <td>3</td> <td> <select id="action" name="action"> <option value="0">Select an action</option> <option value="1">Hold</option> <option value="2">High</option> <option value="3">Med</option> <option value="4">Low</option> </select> </td> <td> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Go"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>2005-03-09 9:12:44</td> <td>test</td> <td>3</td> <td> <select id="action" name="action"> <option value="0">Select an action</option> <option value="1">Hold</option> <option value="2">High</option> <option value="3">Med</option> <option value="4">Low</option> </select> </td> <td> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Go"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>2005-03-09 9:14:15</td> <td>test</td> <td>2</td> <td> <select id="action" name="action"> <option value="0">Select an action</option> <option value="1">Hold</option> <option value="2">High</option> <option value="3">Med</option> <option value="4">Low</option> </select> </td> <td> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Go"> </td> </tr> </table> </form> </body> </html> This e-Mail may contain proprietary and confidential information and is sent for the intended recipient(s) only.
