Subject: [xsl] generating mailto From: Steve Salkin <steve@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: 11 Oct 2002 01:42:42 -0400 |
Hi- I'm just getting my feet wet in XSL and it's pretty interesting. I think I am missing something though, because I find myself needing xsl:text more than I think I really ought to. For example, if I have XML <contact> <email>xxx@xxxxxxxxx</email> </contact> and I want to generate a mailto URI like this: <a href="xxx@xxxxxxxxx>xxx@xxxxxxxxx</a> the only thing I can get to work well is something like <td class="contact"> <xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes"> <a href= "mailto: </xsl:text> <xsl:value-of select="contact/email"/> <xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes"> "> </xsl:text> <xsl:value-of select="contact/email"/> <xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes"> </a> </xsl:text> </td> because the need for quotes after the "href=" confuses everything (Then I have to hide the '<' because it gets upset when it sees <a href= with no quotes following). I'm sure that there's a more elegant solution than this relatively ugly one. I did try using an <xsl:variable> but I just get $email in the output. Any takers?
