Wim Van der HamSubject: Menu structure

What's the best way to create an XSLT Stylesheet for a menu structure. The problem is that the depth of the menu is unknown so it could be anything from 1 level to 100 levels...

If I have understood correctly you are generating HTML from xml.

Suppose you have an xml source like that

{?xml version="1.0"?}
{root}
{menu}
{item}0{/item}
{item}1{/item}
{menu}
{item}1.1{/item}
{menu}
{item}1.1.1{/item}
{item}1.1.2{/item}
{/menu}
{/menu}
{/menu}
{/root}

Using the following XSLT

{?xml version='1.0'?}
{xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"}
{xsl:output method="html"/}

{xsl:template match="/"}
{html}{head}{/head}
{body}
{xsl:apply-templates/}
{/body}
{/html}
{/xsl:template}

{xsl:template match="menu"}
{ul}
{xsl:apply-templates/}
{/ul}
{/xsl:template}

{xsl:template match="item"}
{LI}
{xsl:element name="A"}
{xsl:attribute name="href"}
{xsl:value-of select="."/}
{/xsl:attribute}
{xsl:value-of select="."/}
{/xsl:element}
{/LI}
{/xsl:template}

{/xsl:stylesheet}

You will generate an ouput like that

{html}
{head}{META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html"}{/head}
{body}
{ul}
{LI}{A href="0"}0{/A}{/LI}
{LI}{A href="1"}1{/A}{/LI}
{ul}
{LI}{A href="1.1"}1.1{/A}{/LI}
{ul}
{LI}{A href="1.1.1"}1.1.1{/A}{/LI}
{LI}{A href="1.1.2"}1.1.2{/A}{/LI}
{/ul}
{/ul}
{/ul}
{/body}
{/html}


You should be able to output any menu's depth
I hope this helps
