Hi all,
For XML to HTML transformation I'd like to add the HTML <nobr> tag
for each table cell that contains currency values (or <td nowrap> as
an alternative). In my application currency values are values that
always end with a . followed by two digits.
[Test data]
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<test>
<value>Hello World!</value>
<value>CHF -1'125.25</value>
<value>1'125.25</value>
<value>125.25</value>
<value>Hello World. Hello World. Hello World. Hello World. Hello
World. Hello World.</value>
</test>
Using modern XSLT/XPath I could achieve this with the following XSL
using regex:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format";>
<xsl:template match="test">
<table>
<tr>
<xsl:for-each select="value">
<td>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test='matches(., ".*\.\d\d")'>
<nobr>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</nobr>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</td>
</xsl:for-each>
</tr>
</table>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
How could I achieve the same using old-fashioned string functions
such as substring and the like?
This is a great list! Lots of posts and lots of helpful replies.
I only wonder why my own post is the only unanswered posts for several days.
Did I not describe the problem in a way that should be easy to follow for
everyone? Is the problem a too trivial one? Or is it too complicated; rather
not I would guess... Did I out of lack of experience break any of the rules
of this mailing list?
I'm just wondering...
Marcel
