[xsl] getting the text nodes from a set of attribute nodes
Subject: [xsl] getting the text nodes from a set of attribute nodes From: "Robert P. J. Day" <rpjday@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 4 Sep 2003 11:14:51 -0400 (EDT) |
i have the following XML: <a> <b attr='whatever' ... </b> <b attr='more' ... </b> <b attr='yadda yadda' ... </b> </a> and i'd like to use another template to process the (string) values of the (set of) "attr" attributes. if i'm already processing the <a> element, i can certainly create a node-set of the appropriate attribute nodes with: <xsl:variable name="set" select="b/@attr"/> that will give me a node-set of attribute nodes and, when i pass these to another template, that template will be responsible for taking the string value of each attribute node to do further processing. on the other hand, would it be any faster or more elegant to use an expression to create a node-set of text nodes corresponding to those attribute values right off the bat so that all i'm passing is a set of text nodes? that is, is there an expression that would, in that above xsl:variable template, produce the node set of text nodes i'm after in a single select? and do people have strong opinions either way in terms of aesthetics? rday XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
