Just to clarify, I *did not say* that variables are most used in
matematic calculations, far from that. I was saying they are variables
as they are used in the matematical equations, instead of they are
used in languages like Java ou Vb .

Glad you solved you're problem, remember that normally the ways to do
things ib XSLT are more simple then they appear at first, you just
have to think about then in a "xslt" way...

Fica bem.

Hummmm

In my CONTROL node I have the Extentions of the file and in my ObjectIndex 
Node

a want to concatenate it to the file name (without extention).


I have to put in one variable the value read in the CONTROL node and 
concatenate

with the file name in ObjectIndex Node.


Try to explain in Portuguese:
No nó de Control tenho definido a extensão dos ficheiros e quando aplico um

template ao nó ObjectIndex quero que, ao nome do ficheiro aqui definido, seja
concatenado a extensão que foi lida no nó de CONTROL.


Falaste que as variáveis são mais usados para contas matemáticas... será que

podemos guardar um valor num template e usar noutro template?

As i said you should explain what you want to do, giving examples of
XML and the XSL you have so far. Like this no one can help.

You must remember that variables aren't variable ;) , once you define
then you can not change their value. So you don't define in one place
and assign in another place. Variables in XSL are variables in the
mathematical sense, not in "placeholder" sense like in procedural
languages, like Java or VB...

I use vars all the time, you just have to be a little more specific...

Obrigado António.

Something I've learn from you response: I have to define my variable in 
/ and

not

in template.


If someone can post here examples of use of variable defined as global, 
assign

in

one template and  used in another, that will be nice.

Ora viva, é sempre bom encontrar um compatriota :)

I'm not one of the lists experts, there are many people here who
really excels in this area, making this one of the most useful lists
i've seen. But i can point some obvious things.

First, there are no "tags" in XSL, XSL works on "nodes" not on "tags".
So you work by selecting nodes, apllying temnplates on then, etc...

Second your var


     <xsl:template match="ObjectFormat">
          <xsl:variable name="FileExtention"><xsl:value-of

select="@FileExtention"/></xsl:variable>

     </xsl:template>



exist only inside the template where you define it, so you can't use
it anywhere else. You'll have to define it  at the root level you want
it to be global. But it's not clear what you're trying to do, you
should post more info, along with examples of your XML . That template
like it is does nothing...

Fica bem...

Hello

I'm new at this List and new in XSL and I have many problems

understanding

how

to do something.


I have a XML that I want to transform to in a CSV text file to 
import to

Excel.

Until

now I have the text file like I want with the char set that I want 
but there is
something that I want and I don't know how.


In my XML I have a CONTROL tag with some information that I will 
use in

the

other

tags. Some of the tags in CONTROL tag will concatenate with some tags

along

the rest

the XML.


I have to get some data from the CONTROL tag and save it in a 
variable

and

use to

concatenate with fields is another tag.


How can I do that? I was trying to do like this.

     <xsl:template match="CONTROL">
          <xsl:apply-templates/>
     </xsl:template>

     <xsl:template match="ObjectFormat">
          <xsl:variable name="FileExtention"><xsl:value-of

select="@FileExtention"/></xsl:variable>

     </xsl:template>

The FileExtention is an Attribute of Object Format tag in CONTROL.

<xsl:template match="ObjectIndex">
     <xsl:value-of select="@Code"/><xsl:text>;</xsl:text>
     <xsl:value-of select="@Description"/><xsl:text>;</xsl:text>
     <xsl:copy-of select="$FileExtention" /><xsl:text>|</xsl:text>
     <xsl:text>&#xD;&#xA;</xsl:text>
</xsl:template>

With this XSL I get an error:
Invalid variable referenceError in XPath expression. Invalid 
variable

reference


How can I use this variable?

Tkx in advance
