Re: [xsl] How to format Whitespace seperated values into HTML table

[Joerg Heinicke <joerg.heinicke@xxxxxx>]

Hello,

you can use a recursive template, an extension function tokenize (has 
MSXML such a function?) or the FXSL of Dimitre.

The recursive template:

<xsl:template match="valueList">
  <xsl:call-template name="tokenize">
    <xsl:with-param name="string" select="."/>
    <xsl:with-param name="delimiter" select=" "/>
  </xsl:call-template>
</xsl:template>

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

Regards,

Joerg
