[xsl] Node positions with xsl:number count="" level="MULTIPLE" - AND po sition()
Subject: [xsl] Node positions with xsl:number count="" level="MULTIPLE" - AND po sition() From: Bill Shaw - EBCX <BillShaw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 28 Dec 2000 07:39:43 -0700 |
I have an XML with a similar structure: <root> <dept> <agency> <agency> </agency> <agency> </agency> <agency> </agency> </agency> <agency> <agency> </agency> <agency> </agency> <agency> </agency> </agency> ....... and so on </dept> </root> When I need to access a particular "sub" agency within a certain "parent" agency, I need the count of the parent agency and the count of the child agency. I have been able to get the count using <xsl:number count="agency" level="multiple"/> ... so say I am on the 45th parent agency node and 3rd child agency node, the count returns 45.3 (which is exactly what I need). Now my problem is using the 45.3 in my second style sheet to get to child 3 of the 45th parent node. In my second style sheet where I try to use the count produced by the first style sheet, I have the following partial code: <xsl:apply-templates select="./agency[position()=$mainDept]/agency[position()=$subDept]"> I am currently breaking the string apart in VB and passing them in as params which is working but I feel sure there is an easier XSL way (which I stumped to find so far). Below is an abbreviated sample of the 1st stylesheet getting the count: <xsl:template match="agency"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="ancestor::agency"> <a class="sub"><xsl:attribute name="href">/deptmap.asp?link=<xsl:number count="agency" level="multiple"/></xsl:attribute><xsl:apply-templates select="display[@lang = $language]"/></a><br/>
 </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <a class="main"><xsl:attribute name="href">/deptmap.asp?link=<xsl:number count="agency"/></xsl:attribute><xsl:apply-templates select="display[@lang = $language]"/></a><br/>
 </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> Any and all help is greatly appreciated! Sincerely, Bill Shaw 301 W. Jefferson, Suite 400 Phoenix, AZ 85003-2157 ph: 602-506-7919 fax: 602-506-5864 <http://www.maricopa.gov> XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
