Hi List,
Not sure if I state this correctly, but here's what I am trying to
achieve: Select all "row" nodes where the second cell contains
"selected-id = $table-id". What I have is the following:
<xsl:apply-templates select="twz:rows/twz:row[twz:cell/@selected-id
= $car-id]" />
But that is clearly not working when the fourth cell with 'selected-id'
is having a value equal to $car-id (see XML snippet below: more cells
may have a "selected-id", only the second cell is important here)
Now for something that surprised me. The following appeared to be
working in TransformIIX (Gecko, client-side XSLT 1.0). Not sure it works
with other xslt/xpath processors though. But I must say, it is mighty handy.
<xsl:apply-templates
select="twz:rows/twz:row[twz:cell[2]/@selected-id = $car-id]" />
From what I found on the web and on this list, it appears that
subsequent bracketing (//node[cell][2][item][3]) is allowed, but nested
bracketing not. Can someone shine some light on this? It works for me,
but it gives me a bit of a strange feeling ;-) . Some people had some
posts recently on positional grouping. I had some trouble understanding
what was going on, but isn't this basically the same?
The following is a legal variant, but does not actually do what I want:
<xsl:apply-templates select="twz:row[twz:cell][2][(_at_)selected-id =
$table-id]" />
*** SAMPLE XML ****
<data>
<rows>
<row id="1">
<cell>Filename 3</cell>
<cell selected-id="1">Car A</cell>
<cell>exported_filename.xml</cell>
<cell selected-id="3">Company 1</cell>
</row>
<row id="2">
<cell>Filename 1</cell>
<cell selected-id="1">Car A</cell>
<cell>xyz.xml</cell>
<cell selected-id="3">Company 1</cell>
</row>
<row id="3">
<cell>Filename 1</cell>
<cell selected-id="2">Car OTHER</cell>
<cell>other.xml</cell>
<cell selected-id="2">Other company</cell>
</row>
</rows>
</data>
Cheers,
