[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] Variation on a Grouping Question
 Hi All,
OK, I know I have a grouping problem and the FAQ has been very helpful up
this point. But
now I'm stuck...
Given XML code like the following:
<z:row job_number='14002' city='Milwaukee' state='WI' qty='14687'
date='01/01' />
<z:row job_number='14000' city='Buffalo' state='NY' qty='14687'
date='01/01' />
<z:row job_number='14001' city='Milwaukee' state='WI' qty='14687'
date='01/01' />
<z:row job_number='14000' city='Buffalo' state='NY' qty='14687'
date='01/01' />
<z:row job_number='14002' city='Buffalo' state='NY' qty='14687'
date='01/01' />
<z:row job_number='14000' city='New York' state='NY' qty='14687'
date='01/01' />
<z:row job_number='14002' city='Buffalo' state='NY' qty='14687'
date='01/01' />
<z:row job_number='14002' city='Milwaukee' state='WI' qty='14687'
date='01/01' />
I want to output:
<i>Job Number: 14002</i>
<tr><td><b>Milwaukee</b></td></tr>
<tr><td>Date:01/01</td><td>qty: 14687</td></tr>
<tr><td>Date:01/01</td><td>qty: 14687</td></tr>
<tr><td><b>Buffalo</b></td></tr>
<tr><td>Date:01/01</td><td>qty: 14687</td></tr>
Where: Job Number is passed in as a parameter.
According to Jeni's FAQ, the logic of Muenchian method for getting the
grouping of cities would
run as follows:
--> Give me the 1st occurance of 'City' in the node list returned by
indexing the 'by_city' key on the
value of @city attribute
But the logic for my task is:
--> Within the subset of Job Numbers such that 'job_number = $parm', give
me the 1st occurance
of 'City' in the node list etc....
My solution was to immediately restrict the node-list returned by the key by
something like:
<xsl:key name="by_city" match="/xml/rs:data/z:row[@job_number = $job]"
use="@city" />
Since parameters cannot be used in xsl:key, this fails (hard-coding does
work).... Am I approaching this wrong?
The non-functioning template is below....
Thanks in advance for your help,
