Ronan HayesSubject: Changing elements values
Author: Ronan Hayes
Date: 16 Feb 2006 06:36 AM
I have this XML File:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<test>
<level1>
<textA>me@hotmail.com</textA>
<textB>textB</textB>
</level1>
</test>

and I then have this XSL file

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="level1">
<xsl:apply-templates select="textA"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="textB"/>
</xsl:template>
<!--Match the Element-->
<xsl:template match="textA">
<!--Change this Variable Name to be logically related to the element -->
<xsl:variable name="email">
<xsl:value-of select="text()" />
</xsl:variable>
<!--If the value matches what we want, change, else change to a value we want. -->
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$email='me@hotmail.com'">
<textA>new email here</textA>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="textB">
<!--Change this Variable Name to be logically related to the element -->
<xsl:variable name="email">
<xsl:value-of select="text()" />
</xsl:variable>
<!--If the value matches what we want, change, else change to a value we want. -->
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$email='me@hotmail.com'">
<textA>new email here</textA>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>



Basically what I am trying to do is change the value of certain elements. For example if textA is me@hotmail.com then change it.

The other problem I am having is how to specify how to handle the tree structure

<xsl:template match="level1">
<xsl:apply-templates select="textA"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="textB"/>
</xsl:template>

What I want to avoid is having to specify level1 but rather let the XSL navigate the entire tree structure.

Any ideas?

Hi, Ronan. If you apply the same technique described in the following thread, using XSLT's conditional processing statements you should be able to get what you need.
