Hi,
Tempore 17:41:53, die 09/21/2005 AD, hinc in
xsl-list(_at_)lists(_dot_)mulberrytech(_dot_)com scripsit Gustave Stresen-Reuter
<tedmasterweb(_at_)mac(_dot_)com>:
Given:
<myxmlfile>
<folder name="root">
<folder name="documents">
<document name="passwords">
123456
</document>
</folder>
<folder name="pictures">
<folder name="family" />
</folder>
</folder>
</myxmlfile>
parameter: folder_name = "friends"
parameter: path2folder = root/pictures
How can I create a new folder element named "friends" in the pictures
element?
Keep in mind that I need to make sure that both "root" and "pictures"
exist and if they don't, create them first.
See if you can get this stylesheet working:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:apply-templates>
<xsl:with-param name="path2folder">/root/pictures/friends</xsl:with-param>
</xsl:apply-templates>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="node()">
<xsl:param name="path2folder"/>
<xsl:param name="good" select="true()"/>
<xsl:variable name="path" select="substring-before($path2folder,'/')"/>
<xsl:variable name="verygood"
select="($good and @name=$path) or self::myxmlfile"/>
<xsl:variable name="pathafter" select="substring-after($path2folder,'/')"/>
<xsl:variable name="nextpath" select="substring-before($pathafter,'/')"/>
<xsl:variable name="folder" select="folder[(_at_)name=$nextpath][$good]"/>
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="node()">
<xsl:with-param name="path2folder" select="$pathafter"/>
<xsl:with-param name="good" select="$verygood"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>
<xsl:if test="$verygood and not($folder) and not($path2folder='')">
<xsl:call-template name="createFolder">
<xsl:with-param name="path2folder" select="$pathafter"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template name="createFolder">
<xsl:param name="path2folder"/>
<folder name="{substring-before(concat($path2folder,'/'),'/')}">
<xsl:if test="contains($path2folder,'/')">
<xsl:call-template name="createFolder">
<xsl:with-param name="path2folder"
select="substring-after($path2folder,'/')"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test="not(contains($path2folder,'/'))">
<xsl:comment>folder inserted</xsl:comment>
</xsl:if>
</folder>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
