Subject: Re: [xsl] parsing a complex xml tree into simple trees (a challenging problem at least for me :) From: David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 9 Nov 2005 17:13:16 GMT |
<xsl:param name="a" select=".//text()[contains(.,',')][1]"/> would be better as descendant::text()[contains(.,',')][1] which does what I intended (select the first node with a comma) although actually i think it doesn't make any difference here as $a is always used where XSLT1's implied first-node semantics will mean that the extra nodes that are selected when // is used don't do any harm. XSLT2 would be less forgiving:-) change version=1.0 to 2.0 and you get $ saxon8 chops.xml chops.xsl Error on line 16 of file:/c:/tmp/chops.xsl: XPTY0004: A sequence of more than one item is not allowed as the first argument of generate-id() Transformation failed: Run-time errors were reported (if you leave the version attribute as "1.0" saxon8 runs in xslt1 compat mode and produces the same result I posted earlier.)
