Re: [xsl] Help XSL Transformation of Data

Hi Martin


I am using the code snippet you provided, along with the row to output the time. But this doesn't seem to work. 
The only thing I changed was to remove the template definition and added Chart-Data before Root. 

I get an error XML Parsing Error: no element found

I am complete newbie, so please let me know if I have to use template definition and how to use it. 




  <xsl:key name="k1" match="Metrics/*" use="local-name()"/>


    <chart_data>
<!--  Category (X axis) date row -->
<row>
  <null/>

  <xsl:for-each select="Chart-Data/Root/Item[position()=1]/Statistics/Item">
<string><xsl:value-of select="@StartRawDateAndTime"/></string>
  </xsl:for-each>
  
</row>
      <xsl:for-each select="Chart-Data/Root/Item/Statistics/Item[1]/Metrics/*">
        <row>
          <string><xsl:value-of select="local-name()"/></string>
          <xsl:for-each select="key('k1', local-name())">
            <number><xsl:value-of select="number(@TotalValue)"/></number>
          </xsl:for-each>
        </row>
      </xsl:for-each>
    </chart_data>

I don't understand where above 'row' comes from.

And I don't see where data is organized by time. So based on that all I can suggest is


<xsl:stylesheet
  xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
  version="1.0">

  <xsl:output indent="yes"/>

  <xsl:key name="k1" match="Metrics/*" use="local-name()"/>

  <xsl:template match="Chart-Data">
    <chart_data>
      <xsl:for-each select="Root/Item/Statistics/Item[1]/Metrics/*">
        <row>
          <string><xsl:value-of select="local-name()"/></string>
          <xsl:for-each select="key('k1', local-name())">
            <number><xsl:value-of select="number(@TotalValue)"/></number>
          </xsl:for-each>
        </row>
      </xsl:for-each>
    </chart_data>
  </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

which outputs

<chart_data>
   <row>
      <string>CPU</string>
      <number>20</number>
      <number>40</number>
   </row>
   <row>
      <string>Disk</string>
      <number>10</number>
      <number>60</number>
   </row>
   <row>
      <string>Memory</string>
      <number>20</number>
      <number>10</number>
   </row>
</chart_data>

which is what you described above, with the exception of the first 'row' element in your described output, as I can't relate that to input data.
