Oleg TudorSubject: [Context] variable

I see a [Context] variable listed in the Variables window. How can I access its value so I can use it into a test condition for example?

Hi Oleg,

[Context] in the variable window can be access using . in your XSLT code, for example

<xsl:for-each select="books/book/title">
<xsl:if test="string-length(.) > 1">
<Title>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</Title>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>


Hope this helps

Oleg TudorSubject: [Context] variable
Author: Oleg Tudor

I am sorry, I thik I was not clear enough.

What I am tying to is to check on the [Context] variable, and if my condition is met to do something.

The problem I have is that I am trying to do something different on nodes of the same type based on their relative position with eachother. Basically on the first node I want to do something different than on the second node of the same type and so on. I need to check on the position of that type of node relative to eachother. Debugging my stylesheet I just noticed that [Context] variable does exactly what I was needed, therefore I am trying to check on its value so I can make my decisions.

sample code

<mwp>

<task>
<step><para>.....</para></step>
<step><para>.........</para></step>
<step><para.................</para></step>
</task>

<task>
<step><para>.....</para></step>
<step><para>.........</para></step>
<step><para.................</para></step>
</task>

<task>
<step><para>.....</para></step>
<step><para>.........</para></step>
<step><para.................</para></step>
</task>

<task>
<step><para>.....</para></step>
<step><para>.........</para></step>
<step><para.................</para></step>
</task>

</mwp>

For this sample code I am interested in the <task> node. As you can see I have 4 <task> nodes. On the second <task> node I want to perform a different action than on the third <task> node.

Thank you for any help.
