Hi Florian,
im wondering if its possible to do some kind of inheritance with
xslt.
I think that the easiest way to achieve the kind of thing that you're
after is to have common templates for the common elements, such as:
<xsl:template match="property[(_at_)name = 'name']">
...
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="property[(_at_)name = 'color']">
...
</xsl:template>
And then in the templates for <vehicle> and <car> elements just apply
templates to the children:
<xsl:template match="vehicle | car">
<xsl:apply-templates />
</xsl:template>
The common templates for the name and color properties will be picked
up for both vehicles and cars. To get the box around the <details>,
you can use a template that matches the <details> element:
<xsl:template match="details">
<div class="box">
<xsl:apply-templates />
</div>
</xsl:template>
This way, you get inheritance from the fact that the same properties
in each are handled by the same templates.
Cheers,
Jeni
