Subject: RE: [xsl] Testing for Parent Nodes of multiple types From: "Ciaran Byrne" <ciaran.byrne@xxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 14 Mar 2001 17:39:34 -0800 |
The reason why I check the element types of the parent node is so that I can create the parent node if it isn't the correct element type. The purpose of my XSL is to scan some content inserting/ removing elements in order to achieve conformance with the DTD. The content I receive is not always well-formed. By passing it through my XSL I could attempt to achieve well-formedness. Unless... anyone has any better ideas to do this !! -----Original Message----- From: owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of David Carlisle Sent: Wednesday, March 14, 2001 8:57 AM To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [xsl] Testing for Parent Nodes of multiple types } <xsl:if test="parent::p or parent::b or parent::i or parent::u or } parent::td"> } ... } </xsl:if> } Is anyone aware of a more efficient way to implement this ? Not in general, but it depends what you are doing. Rather than going down to the child and then going back and worrying about what the parent was, it might be simpler to do whatever is necessary at the level of the parent (ie in the templates for p and friends). Hard to say without knowing more context.
