[xsl] Trouble creating a table with multiple named templates
Subject: [xsl] Trouble creating a table with multiple named templates From: Max Bronsema <max.bronsema@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 2 May 2005 16:51:19 -0600 |
Hi all, First post. The problem I am having is creating a table using templates. Currently my named templates out put the results in a table format. I would like to have a master template that outputs all the data at once, thus I have control of what the table looks like. I currently have three XML documents merged together by ASP into one XML document with the root node of directory. From this XML document I have been able to pull out all the data I need using templates specific to the nodes I am trying to acess. For example: <xsl:template name="staffTitle" match="//directory/staffTitle/Position"> <table> <tbody> <td><xsl:value-of select="Phone"/></td> <td><xsl:value-of select="pEmail"/></td> <td><xsl:value-of select="Title"/></td> </tbody> </table> </xsl:template> Where I am running into trouble is when I try to create the master template to include all of the named templates information. I have experimented using a template such as: <xsl:template name="master" match="//directory"> <table> <tbody> <tr> <td><xsl:value-of select="dptFull"/></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Location: <xsl:value-of select="Location"/></td> <td>Phone: <xsl:value-of select="Phone" /></td> <td>Fax: <xsl:value-of select="Fax"/></td> <td>Box: <xsl:value-of select="oBox"/></td> </tr> etc... but this does not return the data in the nodes. The real question is, is it possible to combine these named templates into a template that can access all of their data? The master template being a table structure using <xsl:value-of select=""/> as the way to acess data. It works well with my named templates acessing specific parts of the XML document. What is the hangup with going to a larger scale? I know nesting is not a option and have read some info about using Modes but that does not seem like it will work for what I am trying to do. I am getting a book on Wednesday but am hoping for some help from this wealth of knowledge. Please ask for more details or more code if that is what you need. Thank you, I appreciate the help.
