Help in XSL - better example
Manish,
A better example -
<xsl:stylesheet name="Test2"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:output method = "html"/>
<xsl:variable name="root" select="/mydata/questionire"/>
<xsl:template match="/mydata">
<table>
<xsl:apply-templates select="question-id"/>
</table>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="question-id">
<tr>
<xsl:for-each select="id">
<td><xsl:value-of select="."/></td>
<td><xsl:value-of
select="$root/question[qid=current()]/desc"/></td>
</xsl:for-each>
</tr>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Normally, using "//" is not a good idea becuase it searches every node.
By using an xsl variable as a 'position locator' for the second
xsl:value-of operation, it restricts the search to just matching nodes.

Greg,
I have observed that you are referring to
"http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" namespace in your xsl
files.IE 5.0 does not accept the Transform namespace.Are you a different
browser coz most of the methods r not acceptable in IE5 when u use Transform.In
the example below <xsl:variable> is not accepted in IE 5.0.
Any idea as to how to resolve this problem?
Many Thanks

choclatecake,
I'm using the MSXML 3 March preview. It does support this namespace. If
you read the release notes, it doesn't replace MSXML in IE5 unless you run
an exe that changes the GUID's, etc
See the MSDN site for the downloads...

How to change the GUID and make MSXML3 work with IE5?
# 4 Re: Help in XSL - better example
Yuenan,
From the xmlsdk30.chm help file (which is part of the MSXML SDK download),
search on "replace mode", topic "Running Msxml3 in Replace Mode" --
When you install Msxml3.dll, the Xmlinst.exe installer tool is added to your
system directory. You can use Xmlinst.exe to run Msxml3.dll in Replace mode.
In Replace mode, the tool modifies the registry entry to appear as if the
entry was created by Msxml.dll, and overwrites the InprocServer32, TypeLib
and Default Icon values. This modification allows applications that are
coded to the previous ClassIDs and ProgIDs to take advantage of the new
functionality in Msxml3 without changing your code.
HTH,
Greg
