Re: Interesting(?) XSLT task

Terris,

There are probably more elegant solutions, but
here is one...

Given "terris.xml"
-----------------
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE file SYSTEM "terris.dtd">
<file>
<User id="id5"/>
<Login id="id1" user="id5" name="bar"/>
<Login id="id2" user="id5" name="foo"/>
<User id="id6"/>
<Login id="id3" user="id6" name="barbar"/>
<Login id="id4" user="id6" name="foofoo"/>
</file>

And "terris.xsl"
----------------
<UserList xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
  <xsl:for-each select="/file/User">
    <User id="{@id}">
      <xsl:attribute name="logins">
        <xsl:variable name="id" select="@id"/>
        <xsl:for-each select="/file/Login[@user=$id]/@id">
          <xsl:value-of select="."/>
          <xsl:if test="position() != last()">
           <xsl:text> </xsl:text>
          </xsl:if>
        </xsl:for-each>
      </xsl:attribute>
    </User>
  </xsl:for-each>
</UserList>

Will produce the output
-----------------------
<UserList>
  <User id="id5" logins="id1 id2"/>
  <User id="id6" logins="id3 id4"/>
</UserList>

Subject: Interesting(?) XSLT task


| Let's say I have the following document which 
| has IDs and IDREFs:
| 
| <User id="id5"/>
| <Login id="id1" user="id5" name="bar"/>
| <Login id="id2" user="id5" name="foo"/>
| 
| I want to produce:
| 
| <User id="id5" logins="id1 id2"/>
| 
| I add a new attribute called logins which
| contains the ids of the objects that reference
| the user.
| 
| Can someone show me a stylesheet that can
| do this?  I am having trouble with 
| concatenation two ids in the logins
| attribute.
| 
| Thanks,
| Terris
