AW: [xsl] Hyperlinks [newbie Q]

Hi Aaron,

Here is a short stylesheet giving you your desired output:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
	<xsl:output method="html" indent="no" encoding="UTF-8"/>
	<xsl:template match="/">
		<html>
			<head>
				<title>Hyperlink Test Page</title>
			</head>
			<body>
				<xsl:apply-templates/>
			</body>
		</html>
	</xsl:template>
	<xsl:template match="text">
		<p>
			<!-- looks for further child elements within <p>, text is output -->
			<xsl:apply-templates/>
		</p>
	</xsl:template>
	<xsl:template match="link">
		<a href="{@url}">
			<xsl:apply-templates/>
		</a>
	</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>


Output:

<html>
	<head>
		<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
		<title>Hyperlink Test Page</title>
	</head>
	<body>
	This is some welcome text
	<a href="http://www.somthing.co.uk";>XML Hyperlink</a>
	</body>
</html>

Altough you can get the same output using an optimized version of your
<xsl:for-each> instructions,
working with <xsl:apply-templates/> is easier and makes your code more
maintainable.

HTH

wbr,
Roman
