I am working with XML data that shares the same
element name for each node set, for example:
<menu name="link1"/>
<menu name="link2">
<menu name="link2a"/>
<menu name="link2b"/>
</menu>
My XSL stylesheet transforms this into an HTML
unordered list, like this:
<ul>
<li>link1</li>
<li>link2
<ul>
<li>link2a</li>
<li>link2b</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
I can't figure out how to identify the last
second-tier node (in this example "link2b") so that
the stylesheet can write the closing </ul> tag for the
nested list. I thought I would reference it with
something like <xsl:if test="/menu/menu[last()]">, but
my XPath must be incorrect because it fails.
I am currently writing the opening <ul> and closing
</li> tags for the nested list with this:
<xsl:template match="menu">
<xsl:if test="count(menu)>0">
<xsl:text><ul></xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test="count(menu)=0">
<xsl:text></li></xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
If I only knew how to identify the last node in
/menu/menu, I could easily write the closing tag.
Thanks,
-Mat
