Re: AW: problem with Xpath in Variable filled by choose

2005-11-16 14:20:55

I am not sure if i understand the concept fully. If I follow your advice my
output of: <xsl:copy-of select="$CategoryPointer"/>

Is then this:

Yes, but that doesn't show if $CategoryPointer is a document node with
child <news> or whether it is a <news> node. as those two cases act the
same way with copy-of.

Your original version made a document node, I think mine made an element
node.


But if I do: 
<xsl:copy-of select="$CategoryPointer/HeadlineColor"/>

I don't get anything bu

If th evariable holds a document node then its fist child is <news> not
<headlineColor. So that would select nothing and you'd need

<xsl:value-of select="$CategoryPointer/news/HeadlineColor"/>

But if the variable is bound to the news element then you'd need

<xsl:value-of select="$CategoryPointer/HeadlineColor"/>

Also this is assuming that your default namespace is no-namespace,
otherwise you will have to adjust your XPaths to select HeadlineColor in
that namespace.
