Hi,
thanx a lot. Now this is what I call "sophisticated solution"! I'm a XSLT
beginner, so I don't understand some details, but I got the point.
thanx again

Subject: Re: [xsl] need help with converting attribute into elements
Hi,
Yes, that would probably work, but I am required not to use CSS.
Sigh.
How about
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:x="x"
exclude-result-prefixes="x">
<xsl:template match="text">
<font>
<xsl:call-template name="decorator"/>
</font>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template name="decorator">
<xsl:param name="node-set" select="@*"/>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$node-set[1] = 'true'">
<xsl:element name="{$map[(_at_)key = name($node-set[1])]/@value}">
<xsl:call-template name="decorator">
<xsl:with-param name="node-set"
select="$node-set[not(position() = 1)]"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="$node-set">
<xsl:call-template name="decorator">
<xsl:with-param name="node-set" select="$node-set[not(position()
= 1)]"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:variable name="map" select="document('')/*/x:map/item"/>
<x:map>
<item key="bold" value="b"/>
<item key="italic" value="i"/>
<item key="underline" value="u"/>
</x:map>
</xsl:stylesheet>
A tad verbose, granted, but fairly easy to customize to take care for
blink and so forth. Or, if you wish to go the CSS-way when
those-who-require-silly-things come to their senses,
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:x="x"
exclude-result-prefixes="x">
<xsl:template match="text">
<span>
<xsl:attribute name="style">
<xsl:for-each select="@*[. = 'true']">
<xsl:value-of select="$map[(_at_)key = name(current())]/@value"/>;
<xsl:text/>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</span>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:variable name="map" select="document('')/*/x:map/item"/>
<x:map>
<item key="bold" value="font-weight:bold"/>
<item key="italic" value="font-style:italic"/>
<item key="underline" value="text-decoration:underline"/>
</x:map>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Of course, use xsl:choose structure instead of a mapping table if it feels
more natural to you. Or should that be "--for you--"?
