Hi,
First, I want to thank Michael and Peter for your help on my question about
sort order last week. My problem then was solved with the node-set
extension.
My new problem is a location issue. On the XML document:
<animal>
<species>
<name language="English">Wolf</name>
<name language="Spanish">Lobo</name>
<name language="English">Warg</name>
<name language="Latin">Canis Lupus</name>
<name language="French">Loup</name>
</species>
</animal>
I want to perform this operation: If there is more than one "name
language='English'" in "species", then create a temporary node set with the
"name" elements following and including the second "language='English'".
Thus,
<name language="English">Wolf</name>
<name language="Spanish">Lobo</name>
<name language="English">Warg</name>
<name language="Latin">Canis Lupus</name>
<name language="French">Loup</name>
should be
<name language="English">Warg</name>
<name language="Latin">Canis Lupus</name>
<name language="French">Loup</name>
The new node set should then be placed in a variable and compared to
another "species" node set, but I think I can sort that part out for myself.
Is it possible to extract my wanted output with XPath? There can be any
number of "name language='English'", and they can be in any position, so the
solution must be generic. I work with XSL 1.0 and the Xalan processor.
Thanks in advance!
