Andreas,
You have some <xsl:apply-templates> statements that are
located outside of any template. This is not a valid XSL
stylesheet. If the stylesheet is being executed anyway,
I suspect those <xsl:apply-templates> statements are being ignored.
(That would be consistent with your comments about what each
version does.)
You would probably benefit from reading a tutorial about
the stylesheet processing model -- how and when the
processor applies templates.
As for your current task, if I understand what it is
you want to do, here's an approach:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:param name="id" select="'1'" />
<!-- identity transform -->
<xsl:template match="@*|node()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()" />
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<!-- process certain <title> elements specially -->
<xsl:template match="/newspage/news/title">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="parent::news/@id = $id">
process specially...
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()" />
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Hi there,
I want to replace certain node values in elements that are
identified by
an id passed as an parameter. I know I can not use a variable in a
match, so I try to use apply-templates with select and mode.
The pattern seems to be ok, the first example is doing well
except I can
not pass a variable.
Using an apply-templates replaces ALL titles - and using
apply-templates
with a mode just copies the file...
Any ideas? Your help is appreciated.
This is working, but I can't pass the parameter:
<xsl:template match="node()|@*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()" />
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="/newspage/news[(_at_)id='1']/title">
<title>replace title</title>
</xsl:template>
This is supposed to work, but it replaces ALL titles...
<xsl:template match="node()|@*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()" />
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:apply-templates select="/newspage/news[(_at_)id='1']/title"/>
<xsl:template match="title">
<title>replace title</title>
</xsl:template>
Just copies file:
<xsl:template match="node()|@*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()" />
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:apply-templates select="/newspage/news[(_at_)id='1']/title"
mode="replace" />
<xsl:template match="title" mode="replace">
<title>replace title</title>
</xsl:template>
P.S. Sorry, made a mistake when posting this message last
night to an other thread.
