RE: Filtering on attributes

Flemming, thanks for the response.

Unfortunately, It does not work.

I can only suppose for document function that it is copying the values and 
pasting it.  Perhaps that is the reason it does not recognise category at all.

What do you think?

Subject: RE: [xsl] Filtering on attributes


Hello,

Is it possible to filter the data on attribute value before
displaying? For example, it displays the data from those 
nodes where 'scope of dessimination' is EFSA. 

Any suggestion?

Just add the Xpath query after the variable containing the XML from the 
document.


Style sheet
-----------

 <xsl:template match="/">
  <xsl:for-each
select="document('multiple_input1.xml')/someURIs/file">
   <xsl:variable name="copy_current_file" 
select="document(string(.))"/>
   <xsl:value-of select="$copy_current_file"/>
   <br/><br/>
  </xsl:for-each>
 </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

<xsl:value-of select="$copy_current_file//category"/>

Will get you all the category-nodes. So all you need to do is construct the 
Xpath to retrieve the nodes with attribute values you need.

For writing Xpaths this guide is a good intro (se the list to the left):

Cheers,
