I normally set up a variable, something like:
<xsl:variable name="rowStyle">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="position() mod 2 = 0">lightRow</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>darkRow</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>
<tr class="{rowStyle}">
<!-- other stuff -->
</tr>
It's a lot neater in XSLT 2.0 where you can use functions.

Subject: [xsl] Question about HTML tags
Hi,
I am using XSLT to transfor an XML file to an HTML file. The HTML will
have a table with certain rows having a gray background and the other
rows a white background.
For example, the HTML would look like;
<html>
<body>
<table>
<tr><td>AAA</td></tr>
<tr style='background: gray;'><td>BBB</td></tr>
<tr><td>AAA</td></tr>
<tr><td>AAA</td></tr>
<tr><td>AAA</td></tr>
<tr style='background: gray;'><td>BBB</td></tr>
<tr style='background: gray;'><td>BBB</td></tr>
<tr><td>AAA</td></tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
Meaning, I am trying to use choose-when in my XSLT to render either <tr>
or <tr style='background: gray;'>
My code looks like:
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="sometest">
<tr>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<tr style='background: gray;'>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
The problem is that XSLT expects the <tr>'s to have an ending tag befor
the when or otherwise tags end. How should I go about implementing this?
Is there any other way to accomplish what I am trying to do?
Thanks,
HC.
