Subject: [xsl] Numbering Grouped Child Elements From: Jake Stevenson <Jake.Stevenson@xxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 20 Feb 2001 10:44:24 -0600 |
I sent this to the list some time ago and received no answer. I'm still banging my head on this one and hope someone new may be able to help. I need to be able to output numbers based on groups of child elements. I have an XML file similar to the following: <Steps> <Data_Entry> <Field_Name>User</Field_Name> <General_Data>your user name</General_Data> </Data_Entry> <Data_Entry> <Field_Name>password</Field_Name> <General_Data>your password</General_Data> </Data_Entry> <Button_Click> <Button_Image>OK</Button_Image> </Button_Click> <Data_Entry> <Field_Name>Item Number</Field_Name> <Specific_Data>00023</Specific_Data> </Data_Entry> </Steps> I'm able to group the elements so that the output looks like this: Complete the following field(s): User Password Click OK. Complete the following field(s): Item Number I used the following XSLT to accomplish that: <xsl:for-each select="Steps/*"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="name()='Data_Entry'"> <!--If this is the first Data_Entry, place instructions--> <xsl:if test="position()=1"> <tr> <td><!--Number to go here--></td> <td colspan="2">Complete the following fields:</td> </tr> </xsl:if> <tr> <td></td> <td colspan="2"> <span class="Field_Name"><xsl:value-of select="Field_Name"/></span> </td> </tr> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="name()='Button_Click'"> <tr> <td><!--Number to go here--></td> <td>Click <xsl:apply-templates select="Button_Image"/>.</td> </tr> </xsl:when> </xsl:choose> </xsl:for-each> Now, I need to number the groups so that the output looks like this: 1. Complete the following field(s): User Password 2. Click OK. 3. Complete the following field(s): Item Number I've tried using <xsl:number count="Data_Entry|Button_Click" level="single"/>, but that gives me numbering of 1,3,4 (it counts both Data_Entrys in the first group). Is this possible using <xsl:number/>? Or do I need to seek some other solution? Thank you. XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
