Subject: for-each or apply-templates on computed elements? From: "Mark D. Anderson" <mda@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 24 Mar 1999 18:08:44 -0800 |
suppose i have several "section" elements in my source xml. suppose further that there is a "role" attribute which has to be author|caveats|usage|... . now, in my xsl style sheet, i want to format those sections in basically the same way, but i want to determine a fixed order for those sections (say, author, usage, caveats, etc.) which is independent of the order in the source xml. i don't want that ordering to be placed in the source xml. conceptually, i want to do something like: <xsl:constant name="sorted_section_names"> <s id="author"/><s id="usage"/><s id="caveats"/> </xsl:constant> <xsl:for-each select="{constant(sorted_section_names)}/s" var="foo"> <xsl:apply-templates select="section[(@role=foo(@id)]"/> </xsl:for-each> or, as another approach: <xsl:constant name="sorted_section_names"> <s id="author" order="1"/><s id="usage" order="2"/><s id="caveats" order="3"/> </xsl:constant> <xsl:apply-templates select="section"><xsl:sort select="{constant(sorted_section_names)/s[@role=@id]@order"/> both of the above don't work, of course. -mda XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
