Guys
I would really appreciate if you can help me, why, in the following XSL
code, the paramter is not being passed from the parent node for the child
node. I read through every tutorial and I could not yet figure out why it
does not work.
<?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="PROJECT">
INSERT INTO PROJECT <xsl:value-of select="@PID"/>,
<xsl:value-of select="TITLE"/>,
<xsl:value-of select="START_DATE"/>,
<xsl:value-of select="END_DATE"/>,
<xsl:value-of select="CREATION_DATE"/>;
<xsl:for-each select="EXPERIMENT">
<xsl:apply-templates>
<xsl:with-param name="my_pid" select="@PID" />
</xsl:apply-templates>
</xsl:for-each>
It looks to me as if the @PID arrtibute is an attribute of the PROJECT
element, not the EXPERIMENT element.
But also, I don't think <xsl:for-each> is necessary here:
<xsl:apply-templates select="EXPERIMENT">
<xsl:with-param name="my_pid" select="../@PID" />
</xsl:apply-templates>
(NOTE: '../' might not be neceassry here, I can never remember!)
</xsl:template>
Also, I don't think its necessary to name this template; it can just match
EXPERIMENT elemnts, can't it?
<xsl:template name="experiment" match="EXPERIMENT">
<xsl:param name="my_pid" />
INSERT INTO EXPERIMENT <xsl:value-of select="@EXPID"/>,
<xsl:value-of select="TITLE"/>,
<xsl:value-of select="START_DATE"/>,
<xsl:value-of select="END_DATE"/>,
<xsl:value-of select="ORG_NAME"/>,
<xsl:value-of select="ORG_ADDRESS"/>,
<xsl:value-of select="LOCATION"/>,
<xsl:value-of select="$my_pid"/>;
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Cheers,
Richard
