Subject: [xsl] Strange Problem with document($variablename) From: Torsten Schlabach <TSchlabach@xxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 11 Jul 2003 13:05:11 +0200 (MEST) |
Dear list, my apologies if this is too obvious, but I cannot figure out this problem for two days now. This is what I try to do: In a <xsl:foreach> I iterate some directory elements. I want to open the corresponding XML file for each of the directly entries. So I need to concatenate the @name attribute of the current node the <xsl:foreach> iterator is visiting with a directory name prefix. I try to do this like that: <xsl:variable name="filename"> <xsl:value-of select="'../content/news/'" /> <xsl:value-of select="@name" /> </xsl:variable> Using <p><xsl:value-of select="$filename"/></p> the correct filename is being printed. (For example ../content/news/foo" if @name == foo.) Using document($filename) I get a java.io.FileNotFound exception for "../content/news/" (where is the foo gone; it the identical variable!!!). Even more strange: Just putting an X in front of ../content/news" makes the whole thing work: <xsl:variable name="filename"> <xsl:value-of select="'X../content/news/'" /> <xsl:value-of select="@name" /> </xsl:variable> I will get java.io.FileNotFound exception for "X../content/news/foo" (note the foo is *not* omitted just because I put the X in front of the other part of the variable). Of couse with the leasing X the filename is invalid. Do I get the syntax wrong? Is there a different way of achieving this? I tried <xsl:variable name="filename" select="'../content/news/'@name"/> but this causes Xalan to refused to compile that stylesheet at all. I also tried: <xsl:variable name="filename1" select="'../content/news/'"/> <xsl:variable name="filename2" select="@name" /> <xsl:variable name="filename" select="$filename1$filename2" /> as well as <xsl:variable name="filename1" select="'../content/news/'"/> <xsl:variable name="filename2" select="@name" /> <xsl:variable name="filename" select="{$filename1}{$filename2}" /> All this variations result in the stylesheet not beeing compiled. Any comments are welcome. Regards, Torsten XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
