Re: [xsl] xtvd grouping problem (I think)

Let me clarify a little. I already have my set of programs in a
variable... call it $hitSet. So that's cool. And the bit from the sort
on down I'd already worked out. Good and good.

I need to get away from any looping based on program IDs. That's my
problem: program IDs are more fine-grained than my search item terms.
So I need to expand up, collecting up all the <schedule>s which have
the program IDs from $hitSet (and so representing each search item
discovery individually)

In pseudocode, my vision is something like
for each member of schedule ( a long list)
   if this member's @program is found among the @ids in (hitSet list)
       push (this member into Keepers list)

But I have no idea if that's possible in XSLT. I have a hunch it is,
and I'm just overlooking a very simple XPath function for the
assignment...

<xsl:for-each $progSet/items[(_at_)item=@search]/@prog>
     <xsl:variable name="prog" select="@prog" />
      <xsl:for-each $scheduleSet[(_at_)prog = $prog]/@prog>
        <xsl:sort select="@time" />
        <xsl:value-of select="@showInfo"
      </xsl:for-each>
   </xsl:for-each>

Pretty sure I touched on this above. Let me know.

No problemo. Was very well conveyed. =).
