Subject: Re: [xsl] How to select specific nodes using xsl:template match or similar? From: David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 12 Jun 2007 12:24:04 +0100 |
> Does it mean I need to upgrade? well it does mean that you need an xslt2 processor to use xslt2 instructions but you can't presently "upgrade" xalan to xslt2 as it only implements xslt1. Saxon is the most common xslt2 processor but you should also check out offerings from altova and gexslt. > <xsl:variable name="startDate">20050102</xsl:param> don't do that, it makes a result tree fragment consisting of a document node, with a child text node with string value "20050102" which is expensive to build and when used it has to be converted to a string and then to a number, just use <xsl:variable name="startDate" select="20050102"/> which defines startDate to be a number. <xsl:for-each select="data[@name >= $startDate and @name <=$endDate]"> seems to be what you are looking for, although you were not very specific about what was wrong with the for-each and if construct that you did use. It's possible that putting the test in a predicate rather than in a nested xsl:if is more efficient, but in the other hand it's possible that the XSLT engine produces exactly the same executable code from the two constructs, it all depends on the processor.
