RE: Contains

2005-05-30 11:41:01

Having trouble with contains.  I have a set of elements derived from a
source xml which contains the parts of an email that are bad, that I'd
like to ignore in my result.  An example would be the domain of my
hosting company like so it would be listed as "lfchosting.com" and
another element might be "directnic.com".

So I have:

    <xsl:if test="not(contains($bad_emails_contains,.))">
       ... do my result ...
    </xsl:if>

If $bad_emails_contains is a set of elements, then this won't work. The
contains() function expects a string. I think you might be trying to test
whether a node-set contains a given node (*please* don't try to guess what a
function does from its name alone!), in which case the XSLT 1.0 solution is

count($nodeset | $node) = count($nodeset)

The 2.0 solution is

exists($nodeset[. is $node])
