Re: [xsl] How to find out number of elements which does not have a particular attribute

["Ranjan K. Baisak" <ranjanbaisak@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello David,
           I am using <xsl:variable
name="sharedcount1"
select="count(connectivity/*[@*[not(local-name() =
'sharedsource')]])"/> for the below document but it
return 2 though there are no elements under
<connectivity> which does not have an attribute with
name  'sharedsource'. Can you please suggest me where
it was going wrong.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<projet>
<logicaldesign baseid="1" generated="false" id="123"
name="Design3"  version="1">
				<connectivity baseid="2" id="234" modified="6">
					<device baseid="3" id="456"  name="sdevice1"
nameindex="-1" parent_id="234"
sharedsource="UIDc6eff5-fda2a9da1b-7e46659e4bd09213c638466382babfa0">
						
					</device>
					<device baseid="3" id="678"  name="sdevice1"
nameindex="-1" parent_id="234"
sharedsource="UIDc6eff5-fda2a9da1b-7e46659e4bd09213c638466382babfa0">
						
					</device>

				</connectivity>
				<designsharedusagemgr baseid="123" id="8"/>
			</logicaldesign>
</projet>

Ranjan
