I want to select SYSTEMS but i dont want to repeat those
systems that have the same id
i have make this and works:
<xsl:template match="SYSTEMS">
<xsl:apply-templates select="SYSTEM[(@ID !=
(preceding::SYSTEM/@ID))]"/> </xsl:template>
but this doesnt work:
<xsl:template match="SYSTEMS">
<xsl:apply-templates select="SYSTEM[(@ID !=
(following::SYSTEM/@ID)) OR (@ID !=
(preceding::SYSTEM/@ID))]"/> </xsl:template>
can somebody helpme?
You want [not(@ID = preceding-sibling::SYSTEM/@ID)]
Note that "not(A=B)" here means "A is not equal to any node in B", while
"A!=B" means "there is a node in B that A is not equal to".
Also you only need to search the preceding-sibling axis, not the much
more expensive preceding axis.
