RE: [xsl] counting number of occurances in elements

2007-08-11 08:25:29
Thanks Michael,

Example :

                <root>
                    <sub-root>
                        <element>test123</element>
                        <element>test145</element>
                        <element>test129</element>                      
                        <element>test145</element>                      
                        <element>test129</element>                      
                   </sub-root>
                </root> 


I want to count total number of occurances having '145' under sub-root
node, which I am doing like following :

                <xsl:template match="/">
                   <xsl:apply-templates select="root/sub-root" />
                </xsl:template>

                <xsl:template match="sub-root">
                     <xsl:varialbe name="elements.count"
select="count(substring(element,5,3)='145')"/>
                     <xsl:value-of select="$element.count" />
                </xsl:template>


The above gives me the error 'Expression doest not return a DOM node' .

I am not sure what wrong I am doing here ?

Regards.

I'm afraid it's not clear to me either from your English description or
from your incorrect code exactly what you are trying to achieve (Or more
accurately, the guess I would make from your English description would
have no mention of any variable called $compiler.warn.loc, so I assume
it would probably be wrong). An example of input and output would help.

I want to count number of occurances in elements in under a particular

node in XML document and store the value of same in a variable :
 
<xsl:variable name="compiler.warn.count"
select="count(substring($compiler.warn.loc,2,5)='WARNING')" />
 
But I get the following error message when try to see the results in 
browser :
 
Expression does not return a DOM
node.-->count(substring($compiler.warn.loc,2,5)='WARNING')<--
 
Does somebody know, how this can be accomplished ?
 
Thanks for any help!
 
Regards.
