RE: Problem turning a xml string into a proper tree

2004-02-03 13:27:54
I have tried :

<xsl:variable name="v" 
select="xalan:nodeset('&lt;entity&gt;hallo&lt;/entity&gt;')"/>
<xsl:value-of select="$v"/>

                    this returns <entity>hallo </entity>

I can't see how this relates to what you said you were doing earlier.

I'm not sure what xalan:nodeset does when given a string argument; I
expect it creates a tree and makes the string a text node within that
tree, and this is consistent with your output. What it won't do, almost
certainly, is to parse the string on the assumption that it contains
XML.

It would really help if you told us what problem you were trying to
solve, rather than showing us non-working code that represents your
attempt to solve it.

I have a template that  receives a parameter  that way:
   <xsl:with-param name="paramString">
       <params>
           <param att="att1" name="name11">value1</param>
           <param att="att2" name="name12">value2</param>

               .........
         </params>
   </xsl:with-param>

What I'd like to is  to retrieve the value of  <xsl:value-of
select="$paramString/param[n]/@name" /> 
   


To do that in XSLT 1.0 you need the node-set() extension:

select="xx:node-set($paramString)/param[n]/@name"


 

What it more if i make <xsl:value-of select="$paramString"/>
it should 
return value1value2 but it returns        
       <params>
           <param att="att1" name="name11">value1</param>
           <param att="att2" name="name12">value2</param>

               .........
         </params>
this means xalan treats it as a string instead of a tree as
I'd like to.

   


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

should indeed return the string "value1value2". I'm very 
surprised if 
it returns a string containing angle brackets. You need to show us a 
complete stylesheet that demonstrates the problem.
