I'd suggest instead of using position() to get the position of an element,
use <xsl:number/>.
You could in fact use <xsl:number level="multiple" count="*" format="1,1"/>
to get the whole value...

Subject: [xsl] Cleaning text away from context position ...
Hi,
I'm toying with a stylesheet that copies an XML document ..
and adds an
attribute named id:
For the root element, id is 1
For some other element, id is that of the parent, plus ',' plus the
child cardinality of the element (so first child of the root is 1,1,
second child of the root is 1,2, second child of third child
of the root
is 1,3,2 etc).
Something like:
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="*|@*|comment()|processing-instruction()">
<xsl:param name="id" select="''"/>
<xsl:param name="sep" select="''"/>
<xsl:variable name="qid" select="concat($id, $sep, position())"/>
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:attribute name="id">
<xsl:value-of select="$qid"/>
</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:apply-templates
select="*|@*|comment()|processing-instruction()|text()">
<xsl:with-param name="id" select="$qid"/>
<xsl:with-param name="sep" select="','"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
Applying it to itself, I get
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" id="1"
version="1.0">
<xsl:template id="1,5"
match="*|@*|comment()|processing-instruction()">
<xsl:param id="1,5,3" name="id" select="''"/>
<xsl:param id="1,5,5" name="sep" select="''"/>
<xsl:variable id="1,5,7" name="qid" select="concat($id, $sep,
position())"/>
<xsl:copy id="1,5,9">
<xsl:attribute id="1,5,9,2" name="id">
<xsl:value-of id="1,5,9,2,3" select="$qid"/>
</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:apply-templates id="1,5,9,4"
select="*|@*|comment()|processing-instruction()|text()">
<xsl:with-param id="1,5,9,4,3" name="id" select="$qid"/>
<xsl:with-param id="1,5,9,4,5" name="sep" select="','"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
- not quite what I wanted, as text nodes are included in the context
list and affect context positions.
What to do about it? I want to preserve text nodes. Seems I
can't select
and recurse on all element nodes and all text nodes
separately (getting
a nice context list of elements only), as that would mess up
the order
of things.
Any good ideas? Need to recurse in the sibling direction instead?
