Subject: [xsl] simple XPath expression From: Alex Hunsley <lard@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 21 Mar 2002 10:40:16 +0000 |
Hi I'm still a bit new to XSLT and I'm trying to write a certain xpath expression without any success. I'm processing an xhtml file (basically, it's just html really) to add some styling (e.g. fonts etc). Initially, I started off with a template for matching text in the html, and the line was as follows: <xsl:template match="xhtml:body//text()"> This rule worked fine, and matched on text nodes in the html. An extra requirement then came up - I wanted to change this line so that it only matched on text nodes that didn't have a <font> element as an ancestor. The following line is my current attempt to do this: <xsl:template match="xhtml:body//text()[not(ancestor::font)]"> but it doesn't work. The XSLT processor does the processing without any errors, but it matches on lines that do have a font ancestor, so I haven't written the line right... can anyone suggest where I'm going wrong? thanks! alex XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
