Re: [xsl] xsl formating string

[JBryant@xxxxxxxxx]

Ah, so. In that case:

<xsl:template match="transaction_detail">
  <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="../format_control='C1'">
      <!-- Apply the C1 format -->
    </xsl:when>
    <xsl:when test="../format_control='.0'">
      <!-- Apply the .0 format -->
    </xsl:when>
    <!-- and so on -->
  </xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>

Re: [xsl] xsl formating string






Sorry my xml is not like that... Here is a sample of
my xml

<row>
 <line_sequence>3</line_sequence>
                                                 <transaction_detail> 
Transaction
Activity</transaction_detail>
 <format_control>C1</format_control>
                                                 <group_no>1</group_no>
                                 </row>

format_control determines the format of
transaction_detail
