Re: creating a string of child node names

2003-12-03 05:50:39

maybe because I had children in my tags ?

Tags can't have children (although a start tag can contain attribute markup) but
xslt can not access the tags in the original document anyway.

however that is just the standard rant against mis-use of the word tag
which has a well defined meaning, but for some strange reason is often
misused to mean element.

returning to your real point.

 Using My real file for some reason my list ended up ended up with 
  value="InvoiceNumber,,DespatchNoteNumber,,OrderNumber,,AccountNo,,"

If you got that using the template I posted then there is a bug
   somewhere. Most common caase of getting that would be to apply
   templates to some nodes without a name so name() returns nothing.
   This would be the white space text nodes used to indent your
   children. I had apply-templates select="*" so did not select text
   nodes, if you had select="node() or no select attribute at all, you
   would get the result you posted.
