Re: Group problem with blank elements

Hi,

Looks like the processing-instruction <?xml version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8"?>
should start at the first character of the first line in the xsl file. If
it doesn't then this error is coming.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
prakash

Hi Prakash,
  Your stylesheet look fine.. But when I run it with
Saxon 6.5.3, I get an error -

Error on line 2 column 6 of
file:/C:/xml/xsleg/xslt/posgroup1.xsl:
  Error reported by XML parser: The processing
instruction target matching "[xX]
[mM][lL]" is not allowed.
Transformation failed: Failed to parse stylesheet

Mukul

Hi,

The following xslt 1.0 stylesheet should work with a
little tweaking. If
there is an easier way to do this in 1.0, Iam not
aware of it. probably
much easier in xslt 2.0.

Hiya,

Having loads of trouble with this.  On the face of
it a really easy
problem.
I have a bunch of elements like so:

<statement-message>Your account is now seriously in
arrears.
To</statement-message>

<statement-message>avoid further action a payment
of</statement-message>

<statement-message>$82.00 is required immediately.
Any</statement-message>

<statement-message>purchases will now be
declined.</statement-message>

<statement-message>
</statement-message>

<statement-message>  More text </statement-message>

<statement-message>
</statement-message>

<statement-message>
</statement-message>

<statement-message>
</statement-message>

I want to strip out the empty tags and merge
adjacent elements as
follows:

<statement-message> Your account is now seriously in
arrears. To avoid
further action a payment of
82.00 is required immediately. Any purchases will
now be
declined.</statement-message>

<statement-message>  More text </statement-message>

My code at the moment is:
<xsl:for-each-group select="statement-message"

group-ending-with="statement-message[string-length(normalize-space(follo
wing-sibling::statement-message[1]))=0]">
             <statement-message>
                         <xsl:value-of select="."/>
             </statement-message>
</xsl:for-each-group>

My understanding of this is that it should start
grouping from the 1st
statement message, with the groups ending as soon as
an empty element is
reached.  The empty tags at the end would still be
there, but at least
it should do the merge.  However, the result looks
like:

     <statement-message>Your account is now
seriously in arrears.
To</statement-message>
     <statement-message>
     </statement-message>
     <statement-message>  More text
</statement-message>
     <statement-message>
     </statement-message>
     <statement-message>
     </statement-message>
     <statement-message>
     </statement-message>

So where am I going wrong?

Ed
