Hi,
Thanks a lot for replying.
Well you have swapped the file.
The following is in the input file from where i have to get the attribute
values for some node (here Root node is considered)
<Root att1="val1" att2="val2" >
And I am having a intermediate file like this.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Tables>
<Table Name="Root">
<Column name="att1"/>
<Column name="att2"/>
</Table>
</Tables>
I am to match the name of the Tables/Table(_at_)Name='Root' like this first and
then if its the same then compare the
attritube names of Input file i.e. att1 and att2 with the values in the
attributes of node Column of the node Table whose name is Root
i.e. if value of the name attribute of Column node in Table node having
attribute name="Root" is same as 'name of the attribute of Root node in the
input then write the value of attribute of that node from the input file.
I hope I have not confused you. I am stuck to do this. Any help would be
highly appreciated.
Regards,
Dipesh

Hi Dipesh,
Your problem description seems a bit ambiguous to
me. Hope you can explain more clearly.. To my best
understanding, you need an XSL like below --
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:output method="text" version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:variable name="Schema"
select="document('colHeader.xml')"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:variable name="x"
select="Table/Column[1]/@name" />
<xsl:variable name="y"
select="Table/Column[2]/@name" />
<xsl:for-each select="$Schema/Root/@*">
<xsl:if test="name(.) = $x">
`<xsl:value-of select="." />
</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test="name(.) = $y">
`<xsl:value-of select="." />
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
The colHeader.xml file will contain --
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Root att1="val1" and att2="val2" />
And, the XML file, to which you will apply the above
XSL will contain --
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Table Name="Root">
<Column name="att1"/>
<Column name="att2"/>
</Table>
