Hello,
Your Stylesheet is incorrect..It should actually not work for the reason
that you have defined two variables of the same name within one template ,
which is an error.If you are using older version of XALAN then it would
probably work and this is a bug XALAN.
I can't make "numMonth" variable update with the correct increment out of
the "if" tag, so that "Num months:" show me the correct value (until >now
only show '0', the original value).
In XSLT you can not update a variable. once you have assigned a value to
it,the variable has this value untill it goes out of scope.
<xsl:if test="not($lastMonth=substring(editionDate,4,2))">
<xsl:variable name="numMonth" select="$numMonth+1"/>
</xsl:if>
You cant access this variable outside the xsl:if .. it goes out of scope.
I guess what you want to do is..
for-each listObject/object,
If the given condition satisfies, then add 1 to the value of numMonth and
store it in a variable.
you may want to try the following to do what you want to do.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:variable name="numMonth" select="1"/>
<xsl:variable name="lastMonth" select="00"/>
<xsl:for-each select="listObject/object">
<xsl:variable name="numMonth1">
<xsl:if test="not($lastMonth=substring(editionDate,4,2))">
<xsl:value-of select="$numMonth+position()"/>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:value-of select="$numMonth1"/>
<xsl:variable name="lastMonth1" select="substring(editionDate,4,2)"/>
<!--<xsl:value-of select="$lastMonth1"/> -->
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
If this is not what you want,please let us know and some one in the list
would be able to help you.

Subject: [xsl] xsl loop with variable
Hi all:
I have the next xsl code:
<xsl:variable name="numMonth" select="0"/>
<xsl:variable name="lastMonth" select="00"/>
<xsl:for-each select="listObject/object">
<xsl:if test="not($lastMonth=substring(editionDate,4,2))">
<xsl:variable name="numMonth" select="$numMonth+1"/>
</xsl:if>
Num months:<xsl:value-of select="$numMonth"/>
<xsl:variable name="lastMonth" select="substring(editionDate,4,2)"/>
</xsl:for-each>
I can't make "numMonth" variable update with the correct increment out of
the "if" tag, so that "Num months:" show me the correct value (until now
only show '0', the original value).
How can i do that? Can anybody help me please?
Thanks.
