Subject: RE: [xsl] How to parse user input?
Hi Tiffany,
Don't know what your exact xml and xslt is at the moment but the following
may help you:
Input XML (assumed):
<root>
<p class="last">
<p>this is what the user inputs</p>
<img src="images/arrowRight.gif" alt="" width="8" height="8" title=""/>
</p>
</root>
Input XSLT:
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="html" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/root">
<html>
<body>
<xsl:apply-templates select="p"/>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="p">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="@class">
<p class="last">
<xsl:apply-templates select="p"/>
<img src="/public/images/arrowRight.gif" alt="" width="8" height="8"
title="">
</img>
</p>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:value-of select="." />
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Output generated using Xslerator 2.6 using MSXML 4.0:
<html>
<body>
<p class="last">this is what the user inputs<img
src="/public/images/arrowRight.gif" alt="" width="8" height="8"
title=""></p>
</body>
</html>
It is based on the test at <xsl:when test="@class"> where the test returns
true if the sttribute 'class' is present, otherwise it returns false.
HTH,
<prs/>

Subject: [xsl] How to parse user input?
i have an xml file where the user inputs content, but the xml automatically
embeds paragraph tags around the content.
<p>this is what the user inputs</p>
then when my presentation file transforms it, an extra pair of paragraph
tags is generated as a result, which causes the gif file to appear on a
separate line:
<p class="last"><p>this is what the user inputs</p><img
src="images/arrowRight.gif" alt="" width="8" height="8" title=""></p>
xsl used:
<p class="last"><xsl:apply-templates select="user_input"/>
<img src="/public/images/arrowRight.gif" alt="" width="8"
height="8" title=""></img> </p>
how do i parse the only text the user input, stripping the <p> tags to get
the desired result? do i then need to concatenate with the gif file?
desired result:
<p class="last">this is what the user inputs<img
src="images/arrowRight.gif" alt="" width="8" height="8" title=""></p>
thanks for your help,
