RE: Sorting alphabetical entries.

Hi Ben,

I suggest you use the substring() function in your test.

something like 
<xsl:template match="entry">
 <xsl:if test="substring(string,start,length)='foo'">
        <xsl:apply-templates/>
 </xsl:if>
</xsl:template>

you'll have to change what your 'string' is, and what foo is, but that should 
work for ya.

cheers,
Isaac

Subject: [xsl] Sorting alphabetical entries.



        Hi!

        I have the following XML structure:

        <entry>
                <title></title>
                        ....
        </entry>

        I have many entries. Let's say I want to limit my output to only those 
entries which contain titles starting with the letter 'A'.

        I'm assuming it would look something like this:

        <xsl:template match="entry">
                <xsl:if test="????">
                                <xsl:apply-templates/>
                </xsl:if>
        </xsl:template>

        So, what the heck is my test, in this instance? Doubtlessly, I'm 
thinking 
waaaay too hard on this subject, and have missed something obvious.
