The only way I know to do that in version 1.0 is to take a count() from your context. The code I gave you will do that. I might be misinterpreting you though. -----Original Message----- From: owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of scott gabelhart Sent: Wednesday, February 04, 2004 4:53 PM To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [xsl] XPath statement for traversing a nested node structure Kenny Akridge wrote: >If you are looking for a simple count of each object within a node(not a >sum of objects that includes the table subnode), then both of these will >work: > ><?xml version="1.0"?> ><xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" >xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> ><xsl:template match="/"> > <xsl:for-each select="//TABLE"> > <xsl:value-of select="concat(count(DPROW/OBJECT), >' ')"/> > </xsl:for-each> ></xsl:template> ></xsl:stylesheet> > ><?xml version="1.0"?> ><xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" >xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> ><xsl:template match="/"> > <xsl:apply-templates select="//TABLE"/> ></xsl:template> > ><xsl:template match="TABLE"> > <xsl:apply-templates select="DPROW"/> ></xsl:template> > ><xsl:template match="DPROW"> > <xsl:value-of select="concat(count(OBJECT), ' ')"/> ></xsl:template> ></xsl:stylesheet> > >However, if you need the sum then you will need to use some >recurision(off hand this is what I am thinking). > >I think your problem with DPROW/OBJECT is that you are getting a count >based on the first table context. > >-----Original Message----- >From: owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >[mailto:owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of scott >gabelhart >Sent: Wednesday, February 04, 2004 2:40 PM >To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >Subject: [xsl] XPath statement for traversing a nested node structure > >I need some assistance with traversing a nested xml input file >structure. > >I need to determine between the begining of one nested structure and >another the number of occurances of a particular element. > >Example: > ><TABLE><DPROW><OBJECT></OBJECT></DPROW></TABLE> would yield an occurance > >of one OBJECT element using the XPath statement DPROW/OBJECT. > >The above XPath statement falls apart though when I introduce nested >structures. > ><TABLE><DPROW><OBJECT></OBJECT><TABLE><DPROW><OBJECT></OBJECT><OBJECT>< / >OBJECT></DPROW></TABLE></DPROW></TABLE> >Inner most TABLE element has two OBJECT elements and the outer TABLE >element would yield one OBJECT element. > >What is a valid XPath statement need for traversing the nested xml >structure above? > >Any help would be greatly appreciated. > >- Scott > > XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list > > > XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list > > > > Kenny, I will try your suggestion above. I am having problems with XPath based upon my nested xml file structure. Is there a XPath expression that while I am traversing my nested xml input file I can determine how many OBJECT elements exist between each <TABLE> </TABLE> structure or <DPROW></DPROW>. With the nesting structure of my xml input file I can have tables nested within dprows and objects within each of those dprows. - Scott XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
