Dhivya JSubject: Count function with condition including atleast
Author: Dhivya J
Date: 03 Feb 2009 07:32 AM
Hi,
Below is my XML :
<ex>
<a>
<b>
<b>
</a>
<a>
<b>
</a>
<a></a>
</ex>

I need to count the number of <a> tas with atleast one sub element b tag.
i.e) for the above xml i should be getting the count as 2(Though I have 3 <a> tags in the XML the third <a> does not have b in it)

I tried the below function :
Count(\ex\a\b[some conditions for b tags attribute])--->but this gives me the number of b tags and not the count of a tags with atleast one btag

Can any one help on this ?

Thanks in advance,
Dhivya

Very simple...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="2.0">
<xsl:template match="/">
<count>
<xsl:value-of select="count(//b/parent::a)"></xsl:value-of>
</count>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Cheers. John Bampton.
