Subject: [xsl] XSL:Sort-By From: Gavin Myers <GavinM@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2001 11:49:07 -0500 |
Hello, right now we have a bunch of reports that all look the same, but use different xml files. example: <SpendingHabits> <User ID="1" Name="John Doe" Department="Sales" Spent = "20"> <User ID="2" Name="Larry Doe" Department="Sales" Spent = "540"> <User ID="3" Name="George Franklin" Department="Marketing" Spent = "10"> </SpendingHabits> I'd like to take all these reports and change them to something like this: <Report Name="Spending Habits"> <ReportData Location="Header"> <Field Name="Name"/> <Field Name="Department"/> <Field Name="Spent"/> </ReportData> <ReportData Location="Body"> <Entry ID="1"> <Field Name="Name">John Doe</Field> <Field Name="Department">Sales</Field> <Field Name="Spent">20</Field> </Entry> <Entry ID="2"> <Field Name="Name">Larry Doe</Field> <Field Name="Department">Sales</Field> <Field Name="Spent">540</Field> </Entry> <Entry ID="3"> <Field Name="Name">George Franklin</Field> <Field Name="Department">Marketing</Field> <Field Name="Spent">10</Field> </Entry> </ReportData> </Report> With this xml the I can use the same xsl file for all of the hundreds of reports (since they all look the same) They return like this: Header1 Header2 Header3 Header4 Value1.A Value2.A Value3.A Value4.A Value1.B Value2.B Value3.B Value4.B Value1.C Value2.C Value3.C Value4.C But, with this current xml structure can I sort by Name, Department and Spent, since they are no-longer unique? Does this make sense? XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
