Re: [xsl] XSL Previous Node
Subject: Re: [xsl] XSL Previous Node From: David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 16 Mar 2005 17:22:46 GMT |
I have an xml file that could look something like below. Say I have a node called "servertype" that could occur at any level. In my XSLT, when I am on a certain "servertype", I want to get find out exactly where in the xml was the previous and next instance of "servertype" node. Key point is that "servertype" could occur at any level with the XML structure so I do not think preceding-sibling asex would work. If I use ancestor axes then it ignores any previous instance of the "servertype" node at the same level. If you want the previous use the previous:: axis rather than teh two you mentioned, ancestor:: or previous-sibling:: Actually, depending on how you define previous, you may want to use (previous::servertype|ancestor::servertype)[last()] rather than previous::servertype[1] XPath doesn't consider ancestors to be previous nodes.
