I'm trying to apply the Muenchian grouping method to an external document. Of
course, this doesn't work because the document function doesn't work within
match statements. Am I going around this the wrong way?
newFirstGraders.xml
<class name="101" type="math">
<student>Bob</student>
<student>Joe</student>
<student>Mary</student>
</class>
<class name="201" type="science">
<student>Bob</student>
<student>Joe</student>
<student>Mary</student>
</class>
<class name="301" type="math">
<student>John</student>
<student>Peter</student>
</class>
firstGraders.xml
<class name="101" type="math">
<student>Fred</student>
<student>Mark</student>
</class>
<class name="201" type="science">
<student>Paul</student>
</class>
<class name="301" type="math">
<student>Wendy</student>
</class>
generateSchoolReport.xsl
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:transform xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" />
<xsl:key name="newstudents" match="document('class101.xml')/class/student"
use="../@type" />
<xsl:key name="students" match="/class/student" use="../@type" />
<xsl:template match="/class/student">
<xsl:apply-templates
select="/class/student[generate-id(.)=generate-id(key('students', ../@type))]"
/> mode="uniqueType" />
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="/class/student" mode="uniqueType">
Number of Math Students: <xsl:value-of select="count(key('students','math')) +
count(key('newstudents', ../@type))" /></xsl:attribute>
This should be :
Number of <xsl:value-of select="../@type" /> students: <xsl:value-of
select="count(key('students', ../@type)) + count(key('newstudents', ../@type))"
/>
instead.
</xsl:template>
</xsl:transform>
Is there a way to do this (while still grouping unique groups across
documents)?
Has this already been covered. It feels familiar, but I couldn't find a
relevant solution through searching. I know this XSL looks bad -- I'm new...
and this XSL was extracted from a far more complex XSL algorithm. Given this
example, I'm sure you can write a better template match that does not require
the 'function' call trick of using a mode='uniqueType'. I'm just too lazy to
make a better example, sorry.
