Subject: [xsl] XSL: Build a dynamic HTML Select from a single Quantity value From: Jimmy D <webnet02@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 7 Aug 2008 08:56:23 -0700 (PDT) |
Hi, I've searched the web and archives for the specifics on this process but haven't found a good match for what I am trying to accomplish. I have the following XML from a third party source I pull from the web to populate a web page on my site: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <Products> <Data Count="2"> <Item> <Product>Widget 1</Product> <Quantity>3</Quantity> <Price>10</Price> </Item> <Item> <Product>Widget 2</Product> <Quantity>2</Quantity> <Price>15</Price> </Item> </Data> </Products> In my style sheet I need to build a HTML drop-down with sequential option values equal to the number in <Quantity> like so.. Widget 1 <select name="Quantity"> <option value="1">1</option> <option value="2">2</option> <option value="3">3</option> </select> Widget 2 <select name="Quantity"> <option value="1">1</option> <option value="2">2</option> </select> I am somewhat new to writing style sheets but I am experienced in ASP / VBscript where I would handle this with a For / Next like: <select name="Quantity"> <% For count = 1 to Quantity response.write("<option value='" & count & "'>" & count & "</option>") Next %> </select> However, I haven't figured out how to do this in my style sheet. My XSL looks something like this at the moment: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="Products/Data/Item"> <table> <xsl:for-each select="Products/Data/Item"> <tr> <td> <xsl:value-of select="Product" /> </td> <td> <xsl:value-of select="Price" /> </td> <td>Select the number you want to order: <select name="Quantity"> <!-- Where I'm Stuck --> </select> </td> </tr> </xsl:for-each> </table> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> Thanks for your assistance! Jim
