Subject: [xsl] XSL Problem From: "Dale Earnest" <dale.earnest@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 10 Aug 2004 20:01:23 -0400 |
I've run into a difficult xslt problem and I was hoping someone may have some insight. I have an XML structure that looks like this (the '...'s represent nodes that aren't directly relevant to the question and are omitted): <PersAutoInsurance> <PersVeh> ... <AdditionalInterest> <AdditionalInterestInfo> <NatureInterestCd>ADDIN</NatureInterestCd> </AdditionalInterestInfo> </AdditionalInterest> <AdditionalInterest> ... <AdditionalInterestInfo> <NatureInterestCd>LIEN</NatureInterestCd> </AdditionalInterestInfo> </AdditionalInterest> <AdditionalInterest> ... <AdditionalInterestInfo> <NatureInterestCd>LIEN</NatureInterestCd> </AdditionalInterestInfo> </AdditionalInterest> </PersVeh> <PersVeh> <AdditionalInterest> ... <AdditionalInterestInfo> <NatureInterestCd>ADDIN</NatureInterestCd> </AdditionalInterestInfo> </AdditionalInterest> <AdditionalInterest> ... <AdditionalInterestInfo> <NatureInterestCd>LIEN</NatureInterestCd> </AdditionalInterestInfo> </AdditionalInterest> <AdditionalInterest> ... <AdditionalInterestInfo> <NatureInterestCd>AIL</NatureInterestCd> </AdditionalInterestInfo> </AdditionalInterest> </PersVeh> </PersAutoInsurance> What I'm trying to do is select NatureInterestCd's based on the following criteria: 1) I cannot accept the first NatureInterestCd = LIEN for each vehicle (but may accept any subsequent for processing) 2) I cannot accept the first NatureInterestCd = AIL for each vehicle (but may accept any subsequent for processing) 2) I can accept any other node I attempted to use this type of statement to get the nodes and loop over them: <xsl:for-each select="PersAutoInsurance/PersVeh/AdditionalInterest/AdditionalInterestInfo[n ot(NatureInterestCd = 'LIEN') and not(NatureInterestCd = 'AIL')]"> But that eliminates all nodes, not simply the first. I tried adding in a position() qualifier, but that ended up only checking the first node in the whole node-set selected. I tried generate-id(PersAutoInsurance/PersVeh[1]/AdditionalInterest/AdditionalInteres tInfo[NatureInterestCd = 'LIEN'][1]) as that XPATH returns the LIEN I don't want (I had to use it in another part of the xsl), but the ID it generated wasn't the same as the ID that was being generated when I looped over the all the NatureInterestCd's, so I couldn't eliminate the node based on that. I'm nearing my wits end on this problem and I was hoping that someone could give some insight into this problem. Dale Earnest
