Hi all,
thanks for taking a moment to read.
I'm trying to generate a CSV file from XML that looks something like this:
<root>
<metadata>
<title>Alpha</title>
<subject>Sinister</subject>
<creator>Beta</creator>
<subject>Gamma</subject>
<subject>Delta</subject>
<subject>Epsilon</subject>
<date>2011-04-19</date>
</metadata>
<metadata>
<title>Zeta</title>
<creator>Eta</creator>
<creator>Theta</creator>
<contributor>Dexter</contributor>
<contributor>Iota</contributor>
<subject>Kappa</subject>
<subject>Lambda</subject>
<date>2011-04-19</date>
</metadata>
</root>
I'm at a complete loss. I've been reading (and rereading) examples
from the XSLT Cookbook, but I haven't been able to make the examples
jive with what I'm looking at on my screen. Is this even possible? If
so, would someone mind giving me a push in the right direction?
I've been able to generate a dummy XML file that has a complete set of
all the elements:
<root>
<metadata>
<title>Value</title>
<subject>Value</subject>
<creator>Value</creator>
<creator>Value</creator>
<contributor>Value</contributor>
<subject>Value</subject>
<subject>Value</subject>
<subject>Value</subject>
<date>Value</date>
</metadata>
</root>
If I use this to generate a row of column names, I think I can map the
variable elements to their respective columns provided I can get that
aforementioned push. Maybe it needs to be a kick...
Thanks again for reading.
Cheers,
Bridger
