Identify node with variable and replace its value / mode problem

2004-01-09 10:34:04
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.
