Subject: [xsl] applying templates to all descendants From: Adam Van Den Hoven <Adam.Hoven@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 10 Jan 2001 10:57:44 -0800 |
Lets say that I have the following XML (borrowed from MS) <COLLECTION> <BOOK> <TITLE>Cosmos</TITLE> <AUTHOR>Carl Sagan</AUTHOR> <PUBLISHER>Ballantine Books</PUBLISHER> </BOOK> <BOOK> <TITLE>Catwings</TITLE> <AUTHOR>Ursula K. Le Guin</AUTHOR> <PUBLISHER>Scholastic</PUBLISHER> </BOOK> <BOOK> <TITLE>Home Town</TITLE> <AUTHOR>Tracy Kidder</AUTHOR> <PUBLISHER>Random House</PUBLISHER> </BOOK> </COLLECTION> and an XSL file that contains: <xsl:template match="/" > ...STUFF... <xsl:apply-templates select="/COLLECTION//*" /> ...STUFF... </xsl:template> <xsl:template select="BOOK"> ...STUFF... <xsl:apply-templates select="*" /> ...STUFF... </xsl:template> <xsl:template select="TITLE"> ...STUFF... </xsl:template> will the TITLE template get executed in the context of the root template AND the BOOK template or just the BOOK template. That is, having matched a node to a template, will apply-templates continue to make matches to its descendants. I suppose I could avoid complication by making use of modes (and I will do that regardless), I'm really interested in knowing what the behaviour is. > Adam van den Hoven > Internet Application Developer > Blue Zone > tel. 604.685.4310 > fax. 604.685.4391 > > Blue Zone makes you interactive. http://www.bluezone.net/ > > > > XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
