Re: xsl formating string

Sorry my xml is not like that... Here is a sample of
my xml

<row>
                        <line_sequence>3</line_sequence>
                        <transaction_detail>    Transaction
Activity</transaction_detail>
                        <format_control>C1</format_control>
                        <group_no>1</group_no>
                </row>

format_control determines the format of
transaction_detail

Hi, Josh,

For the sake of this dicussion, I assume that the
strings are contained in 
elements and that the elements have format
attributes, thus:
<someElement format="C1">Some String</someElement>

In that case, you can do this:
<xsl:template match="someElement">
  <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="@format='C1'">
      <span style="color:#0000FF"><xsl:value-of
select="."/></span>
    </xsl:when>
    <xsl:when test="@format='.0'">
      <xsl:value-of select="concat(., '.0')"/>
    </xsl:when>
    <xsl:when test="somethingElse">
      And so on...
    </xsl:when>
    <xsl:otherwise>
      <xsl:message>Ruh Roh! No format!</xsl:message>
    </xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>

If the source document contains the strings and
format values in some 
other structure, you'll have to adjust, but I hope
you get the idea. If 
you can't figure it out, post a sample of your
source document's 
structure.

Subject
[xsl] xsl formating string






I have a xml file that I has strings in it.  I want
to
do so sort of if logic that says if it is "C1"
format
with blue text if it is "U1" format it with
underline.
 Then if it is "0" I want to concatenate a .0 on the
end of that how can that be done?  How can I do
these
things.  I know that I will probably use an xsl:if 
but I am not sure what the snytax is with comparing
strings.  Can someone give me a sample code of how
this would be done? Thanks!

Josh
