Subject: Re: [xsl] using name() to generate a tag dynamically in xsl output - STILL TRYING From: mark bordelon <markcbordelon@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 26 Feb 2010 13:24:42 -0800 (PST) |
I was not clear. And I should have posted some xml, so here it is: <text> <line id="1" s_len="2.8"> <word id="1">Thou</word> <word id="2">still</word> <word id="3">unravish'd</word> <word id="4">bride</word> <word id="5">of</word> <word id="6">quietness</word>, </line> <clause id="2" s_len="2.4"> <word id="7">The</word> <word id="8">quick</word>- <word id="9">brown</word> <word id="10">fox</word> <word id="11">jumped</word> <word id="12">over</word> <word id="13">lazy</word> <word id="14">dog</word>, </clause> </text> I want a the xpath which would work in a template match to get the parent node of <word>, no matter what it is, whose @s_len attribute is less than 2.5 seconds. The template will then compose an element for output, using the tagname of that parent of <word> which met that condition. This works: <xsl:template match="clause[@s_len<2.5] | line[@s_len<2.5]"> <xsl:element name="{name()}"> <xsl:attribute name="id"><xsl:value-of select="@id" /></xsl:attribute> </xsl:element> </xsl:template> But it presumes that I know that the parent of <word> is either a node named <clause> or <line>. I am trying to generalize even further and not make that assumption in the match condition. As I said, I cannot seem to use any axis or axis-like expression, so matches like the following give an error in Altova Spy: match="word/parent::*[@s_len<2.5]" match="word/../*[@s_len<2.5]" I have tried your suggestions and no node is returned, but I think I was not clear in what I needed. --- On Fri, 2/26/10, Christopher R.

I was recently surprised to be reminded that match pattern steps are restricted in their syntax.B Assuming that the double-asterisk was just a typo in your e-mail, try *[word and @s_len < 0] instead. ~Chris -- Chris Maden, text nerdB <URL: http://crism.maden.org/ > bThe honest man, though eber sae poor, Is king ob men for ab that.b b Robert Burns, bIs There for Honest Povertyb GnuPG Fingerprint: C6E4 E2A9 C9F8 71AC 9724 CAA3 19F8 6677 0077 C319
