Subject: RE: [xsl] Problem transforming Excel XML Workbook (or how to implement one-more-counter-yet in XSLT) From: "Michael Kay" <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 2 Nov 2005 12:44:45 -0000 |
Yes, Microsoft didn't design this to make your life easy. I think it needs a sibling recursion something like <xsl:function name="excel:get-cell" as="element(Cell)?"> <xsl:param name="row" as="element(Row)"/> <xsl:param name="cellNr" as="xs:integer"/> <xsl:sequence select="excel:get-sibling-cell(Cell[1], (Cell[1]/@ss:Index, 1)[1], cellNr)"/> </xsl:function> <xsl:function name="excel:get-sibling-cell" as="element(Cell)?"> <xsl:param name="current-cell" as="element(Cell)?"/> <xsl:param name="current-index" as="xs:integer"/> <xsl:param name="required-index" as="xs:integer"/> <xsl:sequence select=" if (exists($current-cell)) then if ($current-index eq $required-index) then $current-cell else excel:get-sibling-cell($current-cell/following-sibling::Cell, ($current-cell/following-sibling::Cell/@ss:index, $current-index + 1), $required-index) else ()"/> </xsl:function> You can do the same thing using recursive templates in XSLT 1.0 if you need to.
