Below are my xml & xls file:
One of the first things to learn with XSLT is to get your fingers around the
acronym...
________________ XML FILE _______________________
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<items>
<item>
title 1
<description>description 1</description>
</item>
<item>
title 2
<description>description 2</description>
</item>
</items>
_________________________________________________
Generally this isn't a good way of using XML mixed content (elements and
text nodes as siblings of each other). The normal use of mixed content is
for marking up parts of a continuous text, for example, <para>here is some
<emph>important</emph> text</para>. If it doesn't make sense to concatenate
the text with the adjacent elements, then the text should be in its own
element.
XSLT's value-of instruction assumes this design principle, because when you
take the value-of the <item> element, it concatenates all the contained
text.
You can get at "title 1" separately from the description element by
accessing the text nodes directly, but it's harder work.

________________ XLS FILE _______________________
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="items">
<xsl:apply-templates select="item"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="item">
title:<xsl:value-of select="current()"/>
description:<xsl:value-of select="description"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
___________________________________________________
I don't get
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
title:title 11
description:description 1
But ...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
title:
title 1
description 1
description:description 1
title:
title 2
description 2
description:description 2
What changes do I have to make to my xls file to get the
output I want?
Thank you for you help.
