Subject: Re: [xsl] Sorting by document order of some other element From: "Eric Bréchemier" <eric.brechemier@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 25 Jun 2007 23:59:57 +0200 |
the element name is unknown but will match in both sets
but based on provided sample and my fuzzy understanding, it seems like your problem would be much simpler to solve by actually
- iterating on the first set, where elements are correctly ordered, - and for each element, copying the value found in the second set where [replace with your condition, maybe id attribute is identical...]
Hi everyone,
it's been a couple of years since I've had need to consult with all the wise guru's here, but I've got a question on a sorting problem that I can't see a simple answer to at the moment. Basically, I've got two sets of elements, the element name is unknown but will match in both sets. I would like to walk the second set of elements (via a for-each) and copy them in the order of the corresponding order of the first set of identically named elements. There will be an attribute (say "id") that will have a one to one correspondence between both sets of elements . Eg:
Input:
<doc> <set1> <element id="4"/> <element id="7"/> <element id="1"/> <element id="3"/> <element id="2"/> </set1> <set2> <element id="1">other stuff a</element> <element id="4">other stuff b</element> <element id="3">other stuff c</element> <element id="2">other stuff d</element> <element id="7">other stuff e</element> </set2> </doc>
Desired output:
<set2> <element id="4">other stuff b</element> <element id="7">other stuff e</element> <element id="1">other stuff a</element> <element id="3">other stuff c</element> <element id="2">other stuff d</element> </set2>
