[xsl] xsl:for-each result
Subject: [xsl] xsl:for-each result From: Kevin Rodgers <kevin.rodgers@xxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 4 Mar 2005 10:31:16 -0700 |
I'm binding the result of for-each to a variable like this: <xsl:variable name="title-suffix"> <xsl:for-each select="relation_list/relation[@class='REP']"> <xsl:call-template name="title-suffix"> <xsl:with-param name="relation" select="."/> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:variable> My problem arises when no nodes match the select expression and so the title-suffix template isn't called. Shouldn't the title-suffix variable be bound to an empty sequence, whose effective boolean value is false? I try to detect that situation in this instruction: <xsl:call-template name="data-element"> <xsl:with-param name="code" select="'TL'"/> <xsl:with-param name="value" select="if ($title-suffix) then substring(concat($title, ' ', $title-suffix), 1, 304) else $title"/> </xsl:call-template> But my tests indicate that the title-suffix variable is a seqence of 1 node, an empty text node I think. What is the explanation for that, and how should I test for the empty suffix? Thanks, -- Kevin Rodgers
