i am loading an xml into a variable using the document as
<xsl:variable name="srcxml" select="document('QP_Sample.xml')" />
i have certain conditions to check and then am getting the node whose
value has to be retrived from this xml
<xsl:variable name="node">
<xsl:call-template name="tail">
<xsl:with-param name="string" select="@ref"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:variable>
this node gives me the end of the node for example if i have
A/B/C/D then this tail template returns D into my node
I would like to get the value of this node from the above xml for which
i am using
<xsl:value-of select="$srcxml//$node"/>
Hi,
So you'd like to dynamically generate an Xpath, like if there should be
written:
<xsl:value-of select="$srcxml//D"/>
That is fundamentally not possible. But when the expression is this
simple, you can mimic it:
<xsl:value-of select="$srcxml//*[local-name()=$node]"/>
This selects all descendant elements of $srcxml whose (local) name is
stringwise equal to the string contained in variable 'node'.
regards,
