I have included a snippet from my xslt that I am having difficulties with.
My source XML can contain several authors names but those names don?t have
to contain a middle name. The problem with my xslt is that when an author
doesn?t contain a middle name it will pull the middle name from the next
author after it. Obviously this is no good as it creates a name that is
incorrect. I?m not sure how to tell the xslt that if there is no middle
name not to grab <authorMname from the next author. Any ideas?
XML Code Sample:
<author><authorFname>John</authorFname>
<authorLname>Dai</authorLname>, <authorDegree>MD</authorDegree>;
<authorFname>Jane</authorFname><authorMname>Austin</authorMname><authorLname>Smith</authorLname></author>
XSLT Sample:
<xsl:for-each select="Story/author/authorFname">
<!-- Adjusted to allow for multiple authors -->
<Author>
<FirstName>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</FirstName>
<MiddleName>
<xsl:value-of
select="following-sibling::authorMname[1]"/>
</MiddleName>
<LastName>
<xsl:value-of
select="following-sibling::authorLname[1]"/>
</LastName>
<Suffix>
<xsl:value-of
select="following-sibling::authorSuffix[1]"/>
</Suffix>
<Affiliation>
<xsl:value-of
select="following-sibling::authorAffiliation[1]"/>
</Affiliation>
</Author>
</xsl:for-each>
