I need some help in constructing a string from a sequence. Consider this
template:
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:variable name='pf-codes'><xsl:value-of
select="position-translation/position/code[(_at_)pf='pf']"/></xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="pf-codes-string" select="for $s in $pf-codes return
$s"/>
<xsl:value-of select="$pf-codes-string"/>
</xsl:template>
This produces output like this:
AA BB CC DD EE FF GG ...
I need output like this:
'AA','BB','CC','DD','EE','FF','GG', ..., 'ZZ'
Note that the last item is not followed by a comma.
I haven't moved on to the question of using position()=last() to bring about
this last requirement.
I'm having trouble constructing an expression that will enclose each item in
the sequence in quotes (single).
Please point me in the right direction. Thanks
select="string-join($pf-codes/concat('''', ., ''''), ',')"
cheers
