Re: [xsl] double document merge using keys

[Terry Ofner <tdofner@xxxxxxxxx>]

Okay, when I try this template, I get unusual return.


<xsl:variable name="stand2page" select="document('teks2page2.xml')"/>

<xsl:template match="chapter">
       <xsl:for-each select="Chapterlesson">
        <xsl:copy>
            <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
            <xsl:apply-templates/>
            <xsl:variable name="localStart" select="startNum"/>
            <xsl:variable name="localEnd" select="endNum"/>
            <xsl:for-each select="$stand2page">
                 <range><xsl:copy-of
select="$stand2page/standards/stand[@startNum &gt;= $localStart and @startNum
&lt;= $localEnd]"/></range>
             </xsl:for-each>
      </xsl:copy>
     </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>


Everything is good until we get to the triple digits:
<Chapterlesson code="6.1.2">
      <ch>1</ch>
      <lesson>Collaborating Through the Writing Process </lesson>
      <startNum>13</startNum>
      <endNum>32</endNum>
      <range>
         <stand startNum="13" endNum="14">14.A.2</stand>

         <!--I removed a bunch from here-->

         <stand startNum="30" endNum="30">14.D.3</stand>
         <stand startNum="31" endNum="31">14.E.3</stand>
         <stand startNum="132" endNum="132">16.A.2</stand>
         <stand startNum="133" endNum="133">14.A.1</stand>
		<!--many more like thes-->
</range>
</Chapterlesson>

Something is going wrong with the math. Is it seeing startNum="133" and seeing
13 or something?
