Subject: Re: [xsl] What does the phrase "duplicates removed" mean precisely? From: "Jay Bryant" <jay@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 31 Jan 2006 18:30:10 -0600 |
Hi, Mark, <SomeTag>This is the text</SomeTag> wouldn't be a duplicate, as it is a single element. Now, if I had a structure like this: <root> <SomeTag>This is the text</SomeTag> <SomeTag>This is the text</SomeTag> </root> I'd have a duplicate. Then, to process just one of the duplicate nodes, I could do something like: <xsl:for-each select="SomeTag[not(following::SomeTag = .]"> <!-- Do something here --> </xsl:for-each> Make sense? If not, let us know. And welcome to XSL and the list.
