Subject: Re: [xsl] Order of xsl:template matching From: David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 11 May 2005 13:56:02 +0100 |
Given this XML chunk: <TEXT>sldj aldj aldj a</TEXT> <REPORT>12345</REPORT> How can I apply templates and have the REPORT appear before the TEXT in the results of the transformation? If in the template for the parent you go <xsl:apply-templates/> Then nodes will be applied in document order. There are various ways to change that depending what you want to happen in general, eg <xsl:apply-templates select="REPORT"/> <xsl:apply-templates select="TEXT"/> would process REPORT then TEXT and ignore everything else <xsl:apply-templates select="REPORT"/> <xsl:apply-templates select="*[not(self::REPORT)]"/> would process REPORT elements first then any other elements <xsl:apply-templates> <xsl:sort select="name()"/> </xsl:apply-templates> would process elements in alphabetic order. Any of these has the requested effect on your small example of processing REPORT then TEXT.
