Subject: [xsl] Howto follow embedded Xpaths in XSL From: Daniel Laird <danieljlaird@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 12 Aug 2010 10:20:48 +0000 |
Hi I am new to XSL and relatively new to XML as well. I have some XML that as an attribute has a value that is an xpath to another location within the same document - however it is not a child etc. Is there any way for XSL to get the value of this node and then get the value of nodes at this location? <root> <component displayName="Component 1"> <stream displayName="Elementary Stream" reference="/root[1]/anotherElement[1]"> <node value="bob"> </stream> </component> <anotherElement> <magicNumber value="27"/> </anotherElement> </root> So in the above example, I want to do an XSL function that 1. finds all components 2. For each component get the value of <magicNumber> that is linked from the reference attribute of my component node. In this example it does not look very helpful but my real data is massive and this would stop lots of repeated nodes and data etc (effectively symlinks within the document) Hope this is clear and you can help Dan
