I don't understand what you mean by 'solution at the top level of
xsl'?
With your XML, you could use:
<xsl:template match="test">
<xsl:if test="not(@xml:lang) or @xml:lang = $lang">
<xsl:value-of select="." />
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
thx for all the help, by top level i quess i meant not having to do a 2
pass solution.
As we are on discussing XSLT1.1, here is a slight suggestion.
why not add a lang attribute to <xsl:document> which performs lang test
filter for output
<xsl:document href="test.html" method="html" lang="en">
</xsl:document>
i think all too often that seriously dealing with multiple languages is
akin to writing printer device drivers,
incredibly important, overlooked, and usually done by very few people;
but used by everyone.
I would like to see a bit more language support within future versions
of XSLT.
any comments ?
cheers, jim fuller
