I'm trying to add padding and a border around images but cannot get my code to work correctly. The code is currently as follows:

Code: Select all

 <xsl:attribute-set name="image">

    <xsl:attribute name="border">

      <xsl:if test="@outputclass='Border'">

        <xsl:attribute name="padding"> 5px </xsl:attribute>

        <xsl:attribute name="border"> solid 1pt blue </xsl:attribute>

       </xsl:if>

     </xsl:attribute>

   </xsl:attribute-set>

So, if the outputclass is 'Border' I want an image with 5px padding with a 1pt border. However, the border is coming out as 5px thick. If I move the padding line to after the </xsl:attribute> line the padding and border are drawn correctly, but then all images have padding, which is not what I require.

Can anyone tell me what the problem is and how to fix it?

Thanks

Hi,

This is for DITA to PDF, right?
You could do something like:

Code: Select all

<xsl:attribute-set name="image">

    <xsl:attribute name="border">

        <xsl:choose>

            <xsl:when test="@outputclass='Border'">

                solid 1pt blue

            </xsl:when>

            <xsl:otherwise>0pt</xsl:otherwise>

        </xsl:choose>

    </xsl:attribute>

    <xsl:attribute name="padding">

        <xsl:choose>

            <xsl:when test="@outputclass='Border'">

                5px

            </xsl:when>

            <xsl:otherwise>0px</xsl:otherwise>

        </xsl:choose>

    </xsl:attribute>

</xsl:attribute-set>

In what you tried you nested an xsl:attribute inside another one which is incorrect.
