RE: [xsl] finding the last element with attribute

Hi,

That's right :-)
Your last element with "<xsl:if test="./@selected = 'selected'">" equal
to true is the only one element with "selected": "<option
selected="selected" >Exeter</option>". If u put into other elements
"selected" attribute with "selected" value, the result will be
different.

Subject: [xsl] finding the last element with attribute

Hi,

I am stuck on a small but annoying problem. I have broken it down into
a
couple of test files, the xml as follows...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<areaserved>
    <district>
        <option>East Devon</option>
        <option selected="selected" >Exeter</option>
        <option>Torbay</option>
    </district>
</areaserved>

..and the xslt as follows...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="2.0">
    <xsl:template match="/">
        <xsl:for-each select="areaserved/district/option">
            <xsl:if test="./@selected = 'selected'">
                <xsl:value-of select="."/>
                <xsl:if test="position() != last()">,&#160;</xsl:if>
            </xsl:if>
        </xsl:for-each>
    </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Basically, in the xml any of the option elements can have a "selected"
attribute with a "selected" value. When I transform the xml I only

want

to put out a comma if it is not the last option with a
selected="selected" attribute. At the moment it always puts out a

comma

unless it is actually the last option (i.e. Torbay). So with the xml
file as it is it will put out "Exeter,"

Thanks
Rob Walpole
