Subject: [xsl] two column table with alternating row colors using xsl xml and css From: nicholse@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Thu, 7 Aug 2003 02:40:26 -0700 (PDT) |
XSL-List@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx two column table with alternating row colors using xsl xml and css I would like to create a balanced two column table with alternating row colors sorted by business excluding html pre data for data non existant in the xml elements like () in the phone number. I am using the processor php extension http://nona.net/software/phplibxslt/: <? dl("php_libxslt.so"); $transformed = libxslt_transform($xmlstring, $xsltstring); ?> : The data will come from xml: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <FMPDSORESULT xmlns="http://www.filemaker.com/fmpdsoresult"> <ERRORCODE>0</ERRORCODE> <DATABASE>Contacts-Master.fp5</DATABASE> <LAYOUT></LAYOUT> <ROW MODID="2" RECORDID="1"> <Co>Abbott Tinkers (Pat)</Co> <Address1>736 Santa Anna Ave</Address1> <City1>Miggs</City1> <State1>CA</State1> <Zip1>94430-9999</Zip1> <Phone1_Area_Code>555</Phone1_Area_Code> <Phone1_Number>121-7679</Phone1_Number> </ROW> <ROW MODID="2" RECORDID="2"> <Co>Aderbouy Specialty</Co> <Address1>1557 Hemmy Drive</Address1> <City1>Jesper</City1> <State1>CA</State1> <Zip1>99251</Zip1> <Phone1_Area_Code></Phone1_Area_Code><! if phone number is missing exclude output of "( )"> <Phone1_Number></Phone1_Number><! what if this tag is "<Phone1_Number/>"?> </ROW> <! etcetera...> </FMPDSORESULT> : I have tried a xsl like the following which works fine but dosent implement two columns, sorting by business and alternating color rows. I am also not sure how fancy I can get with this processor. Every time I try to modify this xsl the processor returns raw xml to the browser. Tis is the default behaviour if there are errors encountered: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:fmp="http://www.filemaker.com/fmpdsoresult" exclude-result-prefixes="fmp"> <xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes" /> <xsl:template match="fmp:FMPDSORESULT"> <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE></TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <TABLE> <TR><TD><B>Contractors</B></TD><TD></TD></TR> <xsl:for-each select="fmp:ROW"> <TR> <TD> <B><xsl:value-of select="fmp:Co" /></B><BR /> <xsl:value-of select="fmp:Address1" /><BR /> <xsl:value-of select="fmp:City1" />, <xsl:value-of select="fmp:State1" /> <xsl:value-of select="fmp:Zip1" /> <BR /> </TD> <TD> (<xsl:value-of select="fmp:Phone1_Area_Code" />)<xsl:value-of select="fmp:Phone1_Number" /> <BR /> </TD> </TR> </xsl:for-each> </TABLE> </BODY> </HTML> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> : I read that using css with table or tr tags can cause browser crashes/display problems at http://css.nu/examples/table-example.html . Need I be worried?. I have not attempted an external css but maybe something like this?: tr.address_row {background-color: #FFFFFF;} tr.address_row_alternate {background-color: #FFFFFF;} I want the html/xhtml output to resemble this: <TABLE WIDTH="100%" BORDER="0" CELLSPACING="0" CELLPADDING="2"> <TR VALIGN="top" CLASS="address_row" BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF"> <!altenating color would be EFEFEF> <TD WIDTH="100%"> <B> <!Co>company</B> <BR> <DIV CLASS="address"> <!address>address <BR> <!city>city, <!state>state <!zip>zip<BR> </DIV> </TD> <TD VALIGN="bottom" nowrap> <!phone>phone<BR> </TD> </TR> </TABLE> : Is it safe/stable to impliment the templates from http://xsltsl.sourceforge.net/ ? Would this provide functionality that would help enable what I am trying to accomplish? I am struggling but learning alot. Any advice or help is much appreciated!
