RE: [xsl] Dynamic columns for xslt

2006-06-12 14:42:30
I'm working on something similar to this right now.

I have a sales document xml that might be output for various purposes, i.e.
order confirmation, packing list, invoice, customs declaration etc.  Each
type of output document will have a different table column assortment.

If you can put the column information into the xml, something like this

<colunmns>
        <col>Title 1</col>
        <col>Title 2</col>
        ...
</columns>

Then you can just read all the <col> nodes and insert them into the table
(html-th or fo:table-header?).

In my case, I'm storing the column definitions in the stylesheet and
accessing the appropriate one based on the type of document output.

HTH,

Rick

Subject: [xsl] Dynamic columns for xslt

Hello all,

I have a dump question please.  Is there a way to
create a dynamic XSLT file?  For example:

I have customers who will create xml file and the xml
will have dynamic columns.  I like to build a xslt
file and can be fed the dynamic columns from those xml
files.

Thanks.
