Re: [xsl] Occurences of comma-separated values

["Mukul Gandhi" <gandhi.mukul@xxxxxxxxx>]

Here is the XSLT 1.0 stylesheet for this (using an extension function,
node-set):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:common="http://exslt.org/common";>

<xsl:output method="text" />

<xsl:key name="x" match="token" use="." />

<xsl:template match="/list">
 <xsl:variable name="rtf">
   <xsl:for-each select="*">
     <xsl:call-template name="tokenize">
       <xsl:with-param name="string" select="@ids" />
       <xsl:with-param name="delim" select="','" />
     </xsl:call-template>
   </xsl:for-each>
 </xsl:variable>

 <xsl:for-each select="common:node-set($rtf)/token[generate-id() =
generate-id(key('x', .)[1])]">
   <xsl:sort select="." />
   <xsl:value-of select="." />: <xsl:value-of select="count(key('x',
.))" /><xsl:text>&#xa;</xsl:text>
 </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template name="tokenize">
 <xsl:param name="string" />
 <xsl:param name="delim" />

 <xsl:choose>
   <xsl:when test="contains($string, $delim)">
     <token><xsl:value-of select="substring-before($string, $delim)" /></token>
     <xsl:call-template name="tokenize">
       <xsl:with-param name="string" select="substring-after($string,
$delim)" />
       <xsl:with-param name="delim" select="$delim" />
     </xsl:call-template>
   </xsl:when>
   <xsl:otherwise>
     <token><xsl:value-of select="$string" /></token>
   </xsl:otherwise>
 </xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

With XSLT 2.0, the solution will be simpler.
