Hi, all
I am trying to write a template that will generate a table based on a xml
file and right now I don't have any
clue how to do it.
If I have a source file looks like this
<foo>
<bar id='1'>
<someElement>a</someElement>
</bar>
<bar id='2'>
<someElement>b</someElement>
</bar>
<bar id='3'>
<someElement>c</someElement>
</bar>
<bar id='4'>
<someElement>d</someElement>
</bar>
<bar id='5'>
<someElement>e</someElement>
</bar>
...
</foo>
Can I write a style sheet that will transform the source file above to a
html table like this?
<table>
<tr>
<td>a</td>
<td>b</td>
<td>c</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>d</td>
<td>e</td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
...
</table>
Basicly, I want to generate N columns per row but I don't know how many
"bar"s I have in the source file.
Select all bar elements for processing.
In the template that matches a bar element, if position() returns
a value that when divided by 3 has a remainder of 1, generate a table row
element. Inside that element, create cells for the current node and its
first two following siblings.
