Hi all,
I'm having problems creating an xsl:variable that I can use as the node set for an 'xsl:for-each' tag.
My problem is that the select statement of the variable needs to be dynamic. Such as... (and I know this doesn't work.. )
It doesn't work because the contents of the variable 'selectclause' cannot be changed.
Of course, this doesn't work either...
... because the content of $selectclause isn't a node set.
Does anyone have any advice for me?? Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Ollie Lord.

[xsl] 'xsl:variable' as dynamic select for 'xsl:for-each'...

Hi all,
I'm having problems creating an xsl:variable that I can use as the node set for an 'xsl:for-each' tag.
Basiacally... <xsl:variable name="selectclause" select=" some nodes "/> <xsl:for-each select="$selectclause"> ... my code... </xsl:for-each>
My problem is that the select statement of the variable needs to be dynamic. Such as... (and I know this doesn't work.. )
<xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$clientid = ''"> <xsl:variable name="selectclause" select = "//client"/> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:variable name="selectclause" select = "//client[$clientid]"/> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose>
<xsl:for-each select="$selectclause"> my code </xsl:for-each>
It doesn't work because the contents of the variable 'selectclause' cannot be changed.
Of course, this doesn't work either...
<xsl:variable name="selectclause"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$clientid = ''">"//client"</xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise>"//client[$clientid]"</xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:variable>
<xsl:for-each select="$selectclause"> my code </xsl:for-each>
... because the content of $selectclause isn't a node set.
Does anyone have any advice for me?? Any help would be very much appreciated.
