RE: Adding a chekbox with XSL

["Keith" <keith@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you are 'inside' the value of statement, you can use <xsl:if test="{.} =
'Y'"><xsl:value-of select="."/><input type="checkbox align="center"
checked="Y" value="Y"/></xsl:if>
this checks the value of the current node against "Y" and builds the
checkbox only if it evaluates to true.

Subject: Adding a chekbox with XSL


Hi.

I tried the faq and the archive but I can't seem to find what I'm
looking for.

I have an XML document that looks like this:

<DemoMenu>
  <option strValue="Setup" textValue="Y"/>
</ndsDemoMenu>

If the value of DemoMenu.option.textValue == 'Y' then I want to add a
checkbox to my page that is already checked.  If the value is not == to
'Y' then I want it to be unchecked.  Setup is the name of the checkbox.

I've figure out how to extract and display "Setup", what I can't figure
out is how to use xsl:if (I realize xsl:choose is really what I want but
I wanted to simplify until I get the basics figured out) to verify the
value of textValue.  I tried:

    <xsl:if test="&lt;xsl:value-of select=&quot;@textValue&quot;/&gt; =
&quot;Y&quot;">
            <p align="center"><xsl:value-of select="text"/><input
Type="Checkbox" align="center" checked="Y" value="Y"/></p>
    </xsl:if>
trying to say
    <xsl:if test="<xsl:value-of select="@textValue"/> = "Y"">
            <p align="center"><xsl:value-of select="text"/><input
Type="Checkbox" align="center" checked="Y" value="Y"/></p>
    </xsl:if>

but I get
  Unexpected token '<'. --><<--xsl:value-of select="@textValue"/> = "Y"

Am I totally looking at this the wrong way or am I missing something
obvious?  It seems like this should be easy but I think I'm looking at
this too procedurally.

Any help would be appreciated.
