[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] getting element name into html using MSXML3
 Hello,
I havne't seen this question asked in the few weeks I have been on the
list. I am hoping someone can help. I am using ie5 to aprse my documents,
and I have installed the May Preview Release of XSL from MS. I presume this
means that my ie5 now parses with the updated engine. I am trying to output
the name of the element in order to serve as a header for the value of the
element.
Currently it outputs the following HTML:
<html>
<head>
<title>Today's News</title>
<link href="default.css" rel="STYLESHEET" type="text/css" />
</head>
<body>
<table align="center" bgcolor="#808080" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2"
border="1">
<tr>
<td>
<div class="right">
Mon May 22, 2000
</div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<div class="center">
News headline of day Headlines
</div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
News headline of day
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<div class="center">
finance headline Headlines
</div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
finance headline
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
Obviously the problem is that it outputs the value of the children of
content instead of their names. The problem is, of course, in the
<xsl:value-of> statement, but if I use 'select" MS balks at any name() or
similar methods. Using "test" I get wrong result. Many thanks for any
assistance. Will
Following is the XML:
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<?xml:stylesheet type='text/xsl' href='../news.xsl'?>
<content>
<date>
Mon May 22, 2000
</date>
<news>
News headline of day
</news>
<finance>
finance headline
</finance>
</content>
Here is the XSL:
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<head>
<title>Today's News</title>
<link href="default.css" rel="STYLESHEET" type="text/css"/>
</head>
<body>
<table align="center" bgcolor="#808080" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2"
border="1">
<tr>
<td>
<div class="right">
<xsl:value-of select="/content/date"/>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</table>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="/content">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="/content/*[index() > 0] ">
<tr>
<td>
<div class="center">
<xsl:value-of test="local-name(this)"/> Headlines
</div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</td>
</tr>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
