RE: Default values for missing elements
Subject: RE: Default values for missing elements From: "John Hall" <JHALL@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 28 Nov 2000 12:47:20 +0100 |
In response to my request for help for a faster way of outputting default values in place of missing input elements Mike Kay suggested: >You can try: >concat( optional-element, substring(default-value, boolean(optional-element)*1000000)) >but I've no idea if it's faster. to be used instead of my current construct: <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="optional-element"> <xsl:value-of select="optional-element"/> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise>default-value</xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> Thanks for the suggestion. It worked, and is a neater solution than mine, but did not work faster (at least with Xalan 1.0) Regards, John XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
