Hi,
I'm creating XSLT files and combining them with the XML Documents to produce flat files using XT engine. There are elements with the same attributes. So when I'm writing the stylesheet, I have to repeat the code for the two elements. The sample XML DTD and XSLT stylesheet is as follows.
<!-- Valid values in XML Document and their values during translation are as follows
Chicago - C
SanFrancisco - S
NewYork - N
Detroit - D
<!ENTITY % ENT_CITY "CITY_VALUE (Chicago|SanFrancisco|NewYork|Detroit) #IMPLIED">
So in the stylesheet, I'll have to repeat the code for both CITY and METROS, like
<xsl:choose>
</xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>
Do I have to repeat the code for METROS element also or is there a way to simplify the code in XSLT. Thanks in advance.
CU,

<!ELEMENT CITY EMPTY> <!ATTLIST CITY %ENT_CITY;>
<!ELEMENT METROS EMPTY> <!ATTLIST METROS %ENT_CITY;>
So in the stylesheet, I'll have to repeat the code for both CITY and METROS, like
<!--City--> <xsl:param-variable name="varcity" expr = "CITY"/>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$varcity='Chicago'"> <xsl:value-of select="sample:padLeftjWithSpaces('C', '1')"/> </xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="$varcity='SanFrancisco'"> <xsl:value-of select="sample:padLeftjWithSpaces('S', '1')"/> </xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="$varcity='NewYork'"> <xsl:value-of select="sample:padLeftjWithSpaces('N', '1')"/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="$varcity='Detroit'"> <xsl:value-of select="sample:padLeftjWithSpaces('D', '1')"/> </xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>
