Subject: [xsl] Reverse lookup table From: "Dunning, John" <JDunning@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 9 Jul 2002 15:30:46 -0400 |
Hi all, I'm posting this as a follow-up to a post I made a couple weeks ago (changing scope in for-each) which I guess could have been phrased more clearly. What I'm trying to accomplish is a 'reverse' lookup table; that is, if something is *not* in the document, have the stylesheet supply the boilerplate text. If the answer is indeed a FAQ, please forgive my thickness and please help clarify. The problem in all my attempted solutions is that once I start looping through the lookup table my scope shifts from the XML document to the stylesheet. The logic I'm using is: + get the organization from the XML doc (AP) + find that organization in the lookup table + loop through the countries that make up that organization in the lookup table comparing them to the XML document (this step is where the problem lies). Again, any and all help is appreciated. Thanks, John <!-- INPUT XML --> <regional> <region> <country>AP</country> </region> <!-- note country 'GH' missing; note also that countries that make up a region are not contained, but follow --> <country>GM</country> <country>KE</country> <country>LS</country> <country>MW</country> <country>MZ</country> <country>SD</country> <country>SL</country> <country>SZ</country> <country>TZ</country> <country>UG</country> <country>ZM</country> <country>ZW</country> </regional> <!-- lookup table --> <LU:orglist> <LU:organization name="AP"> <LU:state name="GH"/> <LU:state name="GM"/> <LU:state name="KE"/> <LU:state name="LS"/> <LU:state name="MW"/> <LU:state name="MZ"/> <LU:state name="SD"/> <LU:state name="SL"/> <LU:state name="SZ"/> <LU:state name="TZ"/> <LU:state name="UG"/> <LU:state name="ZM"/> <LU:state name="ZW"/> </LU:organization> </LU:orglist> <!-- desired output --> Organization: AP: GM KE LS MW MZ SD SL SZ TZ UG ZM ZW (except GH) XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
