Re: [xsl] How do you code value-of select to specify one field per line but you do not want each specified field to jump to a new output line

2014-10-28 15:13:54
If you use an XSLT 2.0 processor I would simply use

<xsl:value-of select="foo, bar, baz" seperator=", "/> instead of all the separate value-ofs.

Or you need to use

<xsl:value-of select="foo"/>
<xsl:text>' </xsl:text>

How do I code the value-of select so all my output fields stay on the same output line.  Do not want to wrap all my value-of logic on one line because then it is too hard to format my output fields.

Here is code and output.  How do I fix the code so I have one field per line but the output all stays on one line.  I look thru each fund_info item and print out a data line with specific fields.

Subject:        Code used to extract data from complex XML file - how do you move fields value of select fields to separate lines



About a week ago I posted information about a complex XML file I was trying to convert to CSV.  I have since come up with the following XML stylesheet.
Have some questions about how to tweak this stylesheet.  Had to start at the recurring section then move upwards to build the CSV file.

O/S Issues
1)  Extracted all default fields from XML file using my XSLT code below.
2)  How can I put each value-of select on separate lines in my code so is easier to read - do not want my data to go to a different line.
3) How do you edit value-of select lines to make a value a date, numeric, zero filled.  
4)  How do I sort file after all records get written out to file in XSLT code
4)  Have to find a way to derive some of my fields that do not come directly from my XML file

        how do I hardcode a value
        how do a pull in a default value into a field such as current date in format yyyymmddhhmm or yyyymmdd
        how do I set up a field from different fields (ie. my batch date format is as follows YYYYMMDDHHMMXCUR where X is a value from another field and CUR is a value from another field
        how do I look for a partial value in a text field from XML file to set up a derived field - need to look for a certain string in invoice_number to set up PaymentTerms

Here is my CSV output from XML File (was able to extract all default fields)
