Subject: Read ,Compare the value and do something From: Cheun N Chong <cnc99r@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 22 May 2000 10:29:08 +0100 (BST) |
Hi, I am a newbie. I have several questios about XSLT. I have the following XML documents: <STUFF> <MILK> <BESTBEFORE>20 May 2000</BESTBEFORE> <CONDITION>still can drink</CONDITION> </MILK> <PORK> <BESTBEFORE>20 July 2000</BESTBEFORE> <CONDITION>freeze</CONDITION> </PORK> </STUFF> I am wondering whether XSLT can do the following (like normal programming): 1. Pass in a value to the XSL, eg. the current date. 2. Compare the current date to the <BESTBEFORE> tag value. 3. Change the <CONDITION> value if it is expired, if not preserve the value. Another question: Can XSL do "reading the value of <BESTBEFORE> set it to a variable" (I have tried to use <xsl:param> and <xsl:variable>) and pass it to another template, eg. pass the <BESTBEFORE> value of <MILK> to the <BESTBEFORE> of <PORK>? I really need your expertise for this. Thousand thanks! Best regards, Cheun Ngen CHONG XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
