[xsl] Isolating specific elements


Subject: [xsl] Isolating specific elements

Hello...

I have some xml...

<Item>
<workItemInstUrn>2076554</workItemInstUrn>
<workItemTitle>Future Item Future Item Future Item</workItemTitle>
<workItemCode>CW1</workItemCode>
<submissionDeadline>2007-05-10T14:00:00.0000000+01:00</submissionDeadline>
<releaseDate>2007-04-26T00:00:00.0000000+01:00</releaseDate>
<closureDate>2007-06-07T14:00:00.0000000+01:00</closureDate>
</Item>

I can sort through any <item> node and find submissionDeadline to test
against the current date but want to hide any <item> that has a releaseDate
greater than today's date.

The problem is my test picks up all <item> nodes and displays all because of
the submissionDeadline element.

Is there a way to test for both the release date and the submission date to
keep them excluded?

Here is my xsl...

<xsl:apply-templates select="//Item[concat(substring(submissionDeadline,
1,4),substring(submissionDeadline, 6,2),substring(submissionDeadline,
9,2),substring(submissionDeadline,12,2),substring(submissionDeadline,15,2),s
ubstring(submissionDeadline,18,2)) &gt; $currentDateString]">

<xsl:sort select="submissionDeadline" order="descending"/>
<xsl:with-param name="display" >ontime</xsl:with-param>
</xsl:apply-templates>
<p class="errorText"><xsl:value-of
select="count(//Item[concat(substring(submissionDeadline,
1,4),substring(submissionDeadline, 6,2),substring(submissionDeadline,
9,2),substring(submissionDeadline,12,2),substring(submissionDeadline,15,2),s
ubstring(submissionDeadline,18,2)) &gt; $currentDateString])"/> Ontime</p>


Thanks...
