RE: [xsl] xsl:choose and multiple (sibling) elements

2006-04-13 07:34:15
the xsl:when seems to work, since in my resulting file (XSL-FO 
respectively PDF after converting with apache FOP) the 
relevant line is 
blank and not filled by the xsl:otherwise. unfortunately the 
xsl:value-of 
doesn't work, i hoped that the ../inhalt would lead the processor to <
inhalt>BBEZ ist vorhanden</inhalt>, since <textListe> is also 
a child of <
element> as <belegBereich> is. didn't work.

xsl:when does not change the context node (that is, it doesn't "lead the
processor" anywhere). All it does is establish whether
<belegBereich>BBEZ</belegBereich> exists.

You want this:

<xsl:variable name="belegBereich" select="//belegBereich[. = 'BBEZ']"/>
<xsl:choose>
  <xsl:when test="$belegBereich">
    <xsl:value-of select="$belegBereich/../textListe/inhalt"/>
  </
  <xsl:otherwise>...

how do i need to write the xpath-adressing in the 
xsl:value-of select in 
order to get my desired value?

i tried many different approaches, including to wrap a 
xsl:for-each (with 
an absolute path until <element>) around the xsl:choose, 
which ended up in 
printing the desired text 8 times next to each other (= number of 
<element> tags)... but at least 


thx a lot in advance
