Hi,

I want the title of my html file to be the value of a grandchild element from a xPath with axes.

That doesn't sounds as a clear explanation, but I'll try to clear it out.

This is a shortened version of my xml file:

Code: Select all

<?xpacket begin="" id="W5M0MpCehiHzreSzNTczkc9d"?>

<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="XMP_omvormen.xslt"?>

<x:xmpmeta xmlns:x="adobe:ns:meta/" x:xmptk="Adobe XMP Core 4.2.2-c063 53.352624, 2008/07/30-18:05:41        ">

            </rdf:Bag>

         </dc:subject>

      </rdf:Description>



</x:xmpmeta>

<?xpacket end="w"?>

I want "EskoArtwork XMP example file" to be the title of my html file.

I've tried the following code, but it doesn't work.

Code: Select all

				<title>

					<xsl:value-of select="rdf:Description[

						namespace::*[.='http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/']

						]/dc:title/rdf:Alt/rdf:li"/>

				</title>

Please post a working sample to allow to easy reproduce the issue. Your XML fragment is not wellformed and the XSLT fragment is out of context and the problem is probably exactly in the part that is missing.

Your code works for me putting it in the right template and with the appropriate namespace declarations, after I corrected the XML file:

Code: Select all


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"

  xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" version="1.0">

  <xsl:template match="rdf:RDF">

    <title>

      <xsl:value-of select="rdf:Description[namespace::*[.='http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/']]/dc:title/rdf:Alt/rdf:li"/>

    </title>

  </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Code: Select all


<?xpacket begin="" id="W5M0MpCehiHzreSzNTczkc9d"?>

<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="XMP_omvormen.xslt"?>

<x:xmpmeta xmlns:x="adobe:ns:meta/" x:xmptk="Adobe XMP Core 4.2.2-c063 53.352624, 2008/07/30-18:05:41        ">

I solved it, the problem was with the template.

I changed

Code: Select all


	<xsl:template match="/">

to

Code: Select all


	<xsl:template match="rdf:RDF">

like in your code.

Thanks for your help!
