Subject: [xsl] weird behavior with last() From: Nathan Shaw <n8_shaw@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 24 Jul 2001 10:49:30 -0700 (PDT) |
Using Saxon with this XML snippet... <MainMenu> <MainMenuItem URL="/">Home</MainMenuItem> <MainMenuItem URL="/strat.html">Strategic Vision</MainMenuItem> <MainMenuItem URL="/themes.html">Research Themes</MainMenuItem> <MainMenuItem URL="/edu.html">Education</MainMenuItem> <MainMenuItem URL="http://commercial.hq.nasa.gov">Commercial</MainMenuItem> </MainMenu> <SubMenu> <SubMenuItem URL="/strat.html#v">Mission</SubMenuItem> <SubMenuItem URL="/strat.html#g">Goals</SubMenuItem> <SubMenuItem URL="/strat.html#p">Philosophy</SubMenuItem> </SubMenu> XSL looks like this: <xsl:template match="MainMenuItem"> <b><a href="{@URL}"><xsl:apply-templates /></a></b><xsl:if test="position()!=last()"> | </xsl:if> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="SubMenuItem"> <b><a href="{@URL}"><xsl:apply-templates /></a></b><xsl:if test="position()!=last()"> | </xsl:if> </xsl:template> If I transform it like it is, I get an end "|" after the last <MainMenuItem> (not correct behavior) but NOT the last <SubMenuItem> (correct behavior). If I bring the end </MainMenu> tag up to the same line as the last </MainMenuItem> tag, I do not get the end "|" (correct behavior). Any ideas as to why this is happening? I realize that it is a rather trivial question, but it is an issue as I have to hand off the maintainence of the XML files to the client.
