Subject: Re: [xsl] xsl:key use attribute using string() causes missing all matches except the first one From: David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 24 Mar 2004 16:52:23 GMT |
I am not sure what is the reason for this, would appreciate if anyone could shed light on this behavior. Example input XML and XSLT below. That is the usual behaviour in XPath1 for all string valued functions. To get a string value from a node set (either implicitly or explictly using string()) you take the string value of the first node in document order. You see the same effect in eg <xsl:value-of select="cell[@column=4]/subcell"/> which would just return teh string value of teh first such element whereas <xsl:copy-of select="cell[@column=4]/subcell"/> would return all the elements. In this case I think the solution is just to remove the string() function. I don't understand I been using string() in xsl:key use attribute extensively since it allows me to retrieve records using the key value "". as this is true whether or not you use string(). David I have had several messages today that have been somehow forwarded by the list manager with no subject line and a return address of xsl-list-return-144-davidc=nag.co.uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and the original header in the message body., I have added subject lines and corrected to address etc by hand. -- http://www.dcarlisle.demon.co.uk/matthew ________________________________________________________________________ This e-mail has been scanned for all viruses by Star Internet.
