I want to print all book titles in library with criteria status = "active".
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:reporting="http://www.sophis.net/reporting">
<xsl:template match="demo">
<xsl:apply-templates
select="library[criteria/status/@value='active']/books/book"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="book">
: <xsl:value-of select="@title"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
What did I wrong?
preceding::/
that would be asking for the preceding / node, which isn't what you
meant' you meant
/books[preceding::status
but ther eis no need to keep goiing back looking everywhere in all
earlier nodes, also you would need a [1] otherwise if any earlier status
was active you would list the book, but you want to just check the
immediately preceding element.
select="./@title"
./ at the front of a select never does anything (it doesn't do any harm)
similarly
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
is the default template so doesn't actually make any difference here.
