Hi list
I have made a MOD 10 calculation with XPath to check if a UPC barcode
number is legal. I am just wondering if the code could be made more
elegant with some of the new stuff in XPath 2.0.
Since I am going to use the test in Schematron, I can use variables
but not templates or other xsl elements than shown below.
The context value is some UPC code like 639382000393.
<xsl:variable name="x" select="((xs:integer(substring(., 1, 1)) +
xs:integer(substring(., 3, 1)) + xs:integer(substring(., 5, 1)) +
xs:integer(substring(., 7, 1)) + xs:integer(substring(., 9, 1)) +
xs:integer(substring(., 11, 1))) * 3 + (xs:integer(substring(., 2, 1))
+ xs:integer(substring(., 4, 1)) + xs:integer(substring(., 6, 1)) +
xs:integer(substring(., 8, 1)) + xs:integer(substring(., 10, 1)))) mod
10"/>
<xsl:if test="(if ($x ne 0) then (10 - $x) else $x) ne
xs:integer(substring(., 12, 1))">
<!-- Not legal, do something -->
</xsl:if>
Cheers,
