Subject: how to refer to xml elements when using the document() function From: Teresa.Mairal-Barreu@xxxxxxxxxxx Date: Tue, 28 Nov 2000 16:21:05 +1100 |
I have been searching for the use of the document() function but I have found very little information and in some cases some of the examples didn't work when I tried them. I have to work with two different xml sources and I've been using document () but my question is what syntax to use to refer to individual elements belonging to 2 different input sources. I'm using xt and so far the only result I get is no result or the whole xml document is pasted into the output. I have tried: <xsl:variable name="cmissions"><xsl:value-of select="document ('../missions/missions.xml', /)"/></xsl:variable> and then refer to elements in the following way: <xsl:value-of select="$cmissions/mission/country_code"/>. This gives me an "unable to resolve node-set error". I also need to get the contents of <misscity> for each <hom_country> ie hom_country_code and hom_country have to be compared and the corresponding city has to be part of the output. How do I refer to each hom_country and country_code? I'd appreciate it if you could help. homs.xml -------------- <homs_list> <hom> <hom_type>abc</hom_type> <hom_name>xyz</hom_name> <hom_country_code>fr</hom_country_code> </hom> <hom> ..... </hom> <homs_list> missions.xml ------------------- <missionspage> <mission> <country_code>fr</country_code> <missaddress> <misstreet>xyz</misstreet> <misscity>abc</misscity> </missaddress> </mission> <mission> ... </mission> </missionspage> Teresa _________________________________________ Teresa Mairal Barreu Public Diplomacy Division Images of Australia Branch International Media Strategies Section Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade teresa.mairal-barreu@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.dfat.gov.au XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
