RE: Usage of key inside a for loop of a RTF does not work properly

2005-01-05 02:45:02
The key() function selects nodes in the document that contains the context
node. If the context node is in an RTF, it will select nodes in the RTF. If
you want to select nodes in a different document, first make that document
current. You can do this using xsl:for-each in XSLT 1.0, or in 2.0 by using
$doc/key('k', val).

Subject: [xsl] Usage of key inside a for loop of a RTF does

<xsl:for-each
select="exslt:node-set($leverreference)/*">
              <xsl:variable name="referid" select="@levelref"/>
              
              <xsl:for-each
select="key('professionlevelkey','$referid')">
                      <xsl:value-of select="@name"/>
              </xsl:for-each>
      </xsl:for-each>
The output of above does not produce any output.
The definition of professionlevelkey key is <xsl:key 
name="professionlevelkey" match="//professionlevel"
use="@id"/>

But if I use
<xsl:for-each
select="exslt:node-set($leverreference)/*">
              <xsl:variable name="referid" select="@levelref"/>
              
              <xsl:for-each select="//professionlevel">
<xsl:if test="$referid=(_at_)id">
                      <xsl:value-of select="@name"/>
</xsl:if>
              </xsl:for-each>
      </xsl:for-each>
It gives correct  output.
Weird....not sure whatz wrong in usage of key inside
RTF..

regards,
Ranjan
