Subject: Re: [xsl] Converting <xml> StyleSheet param contents into a node set? From: Jacquo Johnson <genxgeek@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 17 Aug 2005 02:40:37 -0600 |
Assuming that the xml is valid I guess my only question now is why #1 works and #2 doesn't? #1 (untested)...works ...with <.> <xsl:variable name="rtf"> <Node><Value>HI</Value></Node> </xsl:variable> <xsl:copy-of select="xalan:nodeset($rtf)/child::*/Value" /> #2 (untested)...doesn't works...with < ...> <xsl:variable name="rtf"> <Node><Value>HI</Value></Node> </xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="rtf2" select="xalan:nodeset($rtf)" disable-output-escaping="yes"/> <xsl:copy-of select="($rtf2)/child::*/Value"/> I sincerely appreciate the discussion and help with this, Michael.
