[xsl] Re: matching multiple times, outputting once?

Here's the solution to your problem: xml source document: ------------------- <contents> <b>Hello</b> <i><b>Hello</b></i> <u><i><b>Hello</b></i></u> </contents> Stylesheet: ---------- <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:trans="myTrans" exclude-result-prefixes="trans" > <xsl:output indent="yes" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/> <trans:trans> <in>b</in> <out>bold</out> <in>i</in> <out>italic</out> <in>u</in> <out>underline</out> </trans:trans> <xsl:variable name="vTrans" select="document('')/*/trans:*"/> <xsl:template match="b | i | u"> <emphasis> <xsl:apply-templates select="." mode="emph"/> </emphasis> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="b | i | u" mode="emph"> <xsl:variable name="vEmphName" select="$vTrans/in[. = name(current())] /following-sibling::out[1]"/> <xsl:attribute name="{$vEmphName}">yes</xsl:attribute> <xsl:apply-templates mode="emph"/> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> Result: ------ <emphasis bold="yes">Hello</emphasis> <emphasis italic="yes" bold="yes">Hello</emphasis> <emphasis underline="yes" italic="yes" bold="yes">Hello</emphasis> Hope this helped.

Maybe it is, and i'm just having a mental block -- thanks for your help. Here are 3 possibilities that i have to match for, and 3 desired outputs: <emphasis bold="Yes">Hello</emphasis> <emphasis bold="Yes" italic="Yes">Hello</emphasis> <emphasis bold="Yes" italic="Yes" underline="Yes">Hello</emphasis> <b>Hello</b> <i><b>Hello</b></i> <u><i><b>Hello</b></i></u> and every possible combination thereof. I have had no luck writing an intelligent template rule for these -- the only way i've found so far is a deeply nested <xsl:choose> which takes every possible combination into account. This can't be the best way to do this. Everything else i've tried either matches only one rule, or outputs "Hello" multiple times, one for each style. There has to be an elegant solution i'm missing... (and yes, i know i could easily write this out as <span style="font-style:bold,italic;text-decoration:underline">Hello</span>, but that's not what i'm looking for here.)
