Subject: RE: [xsl] Finding unique columns for building a table ... From: "Michael Kay" <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 4 Jun 2005 19:54:43 +0100 |
The way you describe the problem: "...storing that information, then using that to reference values when iterating through rows?..." suggests you are still thinking in terms of procedural programming, where you tell the machine what order to do things in, and save data "early on" for use "later". The key to this kind of problem is to structure your code according to the output you want to produce. Something like this: <thead><tr> <xsl:for-each select="timePoint[1]/Value/@Label"> <td>Dose</td> <td><xsl:value-of select="."/></td> </xsl:for-each> </tr></thead> <tbody> <xsl:for-each select="timePoint"> <tr> <td><xsl:value-of select="../@Dose"/></td> <xsl:for-each select="Value"> <td><xsl:value-of select="."/></td> </xsl:for-each> </tr> </xsl:for-each> </tbody> This is assuming the structure of your input is as regular as your sample seems to suggest.
