Is there a way to have xsl:choose apply an
action to only the first occurance of an item
and permit the 2nd occurance to be treated
differently?
I know the example I provide below does
not work. Any way to modify it so it does?
Example:
---BEGIN XML---
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='ISO-8859-1'?>
<foo>
<bar>N America</bar>
<bar>Europe</bar>
<bar>Asia</bar>
<bar>N America</bar>
<bar>Europe</bar>
<bar>Asia</bar>
</foo>
---END XML---
---BEGIN XSL---
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='iso-8859-1' ?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="foo">
<xsl:for-each select="bar">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test=".='N America'">
<b>First Occurance</b><br/>
<xsl:value-of select="." /><br/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test=".='N America'">
<b>Second Occurance</b><br/>
<xsl:value-of select="." /><br/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:value-of select="." /><br/>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
---END XSL---
