Subject: Re: [xsl] Converting SSI variables to XML From: Abel Braaksma <abel.online@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 11 Sep 2006 17:49:44 +0200 |
In human language this says: ^.+ from the start of the string, one or more chars \. then a dot ([0-9]+) grab one or more digits and place it in $1 \. followed by a dot [^.]+ followed by one ore more non-dots $ till the end of the string

Hi all, I wish to turn the following CDATA input:
<xml>
<![CDATA[
<!--#set var="t.news.1.title" value="This is the title"--> <!--#set var="t.news.1.image_small" value="smallimage"--> <!--#set var="t.news.1.image_large" value="largeimage"-->
<!--#set var="t.news.2.title" value=""--> <!--#set var="t.news.2.image_small" value=""--> <!--#set var="t.news.2.image_large" value=""-->
<!--#set var="t.news.3.title" value=""--> <!--#set var="t.news.3.image_small" value=""--> <!--#set var="t.news.3.image_large" value=""-->
]]> </xml>
Into XML as follows using XSLT 2:
<ts> <group num="1"> <var name="t.news.1.title" value="This is the title"/> <var name="t.news.1.image_small" value="smallimage"/> <var name="t.news.1.image_large" value="largeimage"/> </group> <group num="2"> etc..... </group> </ts>
I have used the analyze-string function to do a regex match on the HTML comments, it then extracts the values of 'var' and 'value' to create:
<ts>
<var name="t.news.1.title" value="This is the title"/> <var name="t.news.1.image_small" value="smallimage"/> <var name="t.news.1.image_large" value="largeimage"/>
etc.....
</ts>
To add the grouping I will need to do another pass over this data however I am finding it complex to extract the numerical data from the string at @name and it seems unnecessary complex. I have also tried nesting xsl:analyze-string elements to create a group first then the individual variables. Can anyone recommend the correct way to do this?
Thanks in advance
Tom
