Re: Order of template match

Apparently, the example shouldn't work at all since you have to use
"@Cond" instead of "Cond".
So, your example input, with the following stylesheet:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
       version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="html"/>
<xsl:template match="Root">
<xsl:apply-templates select="Outer[(_at_)Cond='true']"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="Outer[(_at_)Cond='true']">
<b>Outer element</b><br/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="Inner[(_at_)Cond='true']"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="Inner[(_at_)Cond='true']">
<i>Inner element</i><br/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

produced the following output (xalan)

<b>Outer element</b>
<br>
<i>Inner element</i>
<br>
<i>Inner element</i>
<br>
<b>Outer element</b>
<br>
<i>Inner element</i>
<br>
<i>Inner element</i>
<br>
<i>Inner element</i>
<br>
<i>Inner element</i>
<br>

Which is what you want.
Maybe you should try to check your XSL-T processor... it might not
be working properly!

Hello Guru's

I have a problem with some display, and must have misunderstood something fundamental, but let me explain:

I have some input XML (simplified):

<Root>
 <Outer Cond="true">
   <Inner Cond="true"/>
   <Inner Cond="true"/>
 </Outer>
 <Outer Cond="true">
   <Inner Cond="true"/>
   <Inner Cond="true"/>
   <Inner Cond="true"/>
   <Inner Cond="true"/>
 </Outer>
</Root>


My stylesheet is something like this:

<xsl:template match="Root">
 <xsl:apply-templates select="Outer[Cond='true']"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="Outer[Cond='true']">
 <b>Outer element</b><br/>
 <xsl:apply-templates select="Inner[Cond='true']"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="Inner[Cond='true']">
 <i>Inner element</i><br>
</xsl:template>



The result I want (and expected) is:
<b>Outer element</b>
<i>Inner element</i>
<i>Inner element</i>
<b>Outer element</b>
<i>Inner element</i>
<i>Inner element</i>
<i>Inner element</i>
<i>Inner element</i>

But what I get is this:
<b>Outer element</b>
<b>Outer element</b>
<i>Inner element</i>
<i>Inner element</i>
<i>Inner element</i>
<i>Inner element</i>
<i>Inner element</i>
<i>Inner element</i>


If I had called Outer, then Inner from Root, I would expect the last result, but I tried structuring the code so it should parse deeply.

How do I get the first result, preferibly using template match.

Sincerely
Ragulf Pickaxe :)
