Marek KucharikSubject: finding connection between escaped text and elements...
Author: Marek Kucharik

Hello all there,

I have problem with finding in text which has escaped elements;

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<DISPLAY>
<PLANE_1>
<row>
<rowOrder>5</rowOrder>
<column>&lt;code value="2312" /&gt;&lt;text&gt;this is testing text&lt;/text&gt;</column>
</row>
</PLANE_1>
<CODELIST>
<row>
<code>2312</code>
<col_1>CODE1</col_1>
<col_2>CODE2</col_2>
<col_3>CODE3</col_3>
<col_4>CODE4</col_4>
</row>
<row>
<code>2332</code>
<col_1>CODE10</col_1>
<col_2>CODE20</col_2>
<col_3>CODE30</col_3>
<col_4>CODE40</col_4>
</row>

</CODELIST>
</DISPLAY>
I want to get xml like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<plane number="1">
<listcode>CODE1 CODE2 CODE3 CODE4</listcode>
<text>this is testing text</text>
</plane>
&lt;code value="2312" /&gt; -> reference to CODELIST to "row" with code = 2312

Please, help me :( I'm lost :(.

Thank you so much in advance.

I'm using this transformation:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="<a href="<a href="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"">">http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"</a>">">http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform""><a href="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"</a></a>">">http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"</a></a></a> version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="no" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="DISPLAY">
<xsl:apply-templates select="node()[substring(local-name(), 1, 5) = 'PLANE'] "/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="*">
<xsl:element name="plane">
<xsl:attribute name="number"><xsl:value-of select="position()"/></xsl:attribute>
<xsl:for-each select="row/*[local-name() = 'column']">
<xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(current())" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

If you want to be able to run XPath expressions on the escaped segment, you will have first to make it become a "parsed" document fragment. That's not possible in standard XSLT; if you run Saxon, you can use an extension function (saxon:parse()) and do something like:
<xsl:variable name="myInfo" xmlns:saxon="http://saxon.sf.net/">
<xsl:copy-of select="saxon:parse(concat('&lt;root&gt;',DISPLAY/PLANE_1/row/column,'&lt;/root&gt;'))"/>
</xsl:variable>

(where you can change the DISPLAY/PLANE... expression with the one computed in the proper context)

Once you do that, you'll be able to run queries against $myInfo.

Hope this helps,
Minollo

Hello Minollo,

I dont understand how to run queries against result from saxon:parse. $myInfo returns only values for all nodes from escaped node-set and I only need value from node <code>.

Do you have any idea? I'm really beginner...

Best regards,

Marek

Assuming $myInfo is assigned the way I suggested, $myInfo/root/code/@value will return "2312" in your example; $myInfo/root/text will return "this is testing text".

Hello Minollo,

I have found an error in my code, that's why I was blind. :(

Thank you very much for your help!

Everything works perfect!

Best regards,

Marek
