This may be a little crude but it works. I'm not one who uses the "apply
templates" very often.
Here's the stylesheet:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="html"/>
<xsl:variable name="totalB" select="count(test/a/b)"/>
<xsl:template match="test">
<html>
<body>
<table>
<tbody>
<xsl:for-each select="a">
<xsl:variable name="countB" select="count(b)"/>
<tr>
<xsl:for-each select="b">
<td>
<xsl:attribute name="colspan">
<xsl:value-of select="$totalB - $countB"/>
</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</td>
</xsl:for-each>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
</tbody>
</table>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Here's the output:
<html>
<body>
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td colspan="1">ab</td>
<td colspan="1">ab</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">abcd</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</body>
</html>
Hope this helps.

Subject: Passing Parameters or ?
Date: Wed, 28 Mar 2001 15:47:24 -0700
List members,
I am new to XSL so the following may seem trivial, but I could not find the
answer in the
FAQ. How does one pre-process a document or node and then use the result in
a
second pass? I assume this may require passing a parameter from one pass to
another, but I could not find an example that shows how to do this. I
think this is
probably command and would come in handy to for calculating a percentage of
total
or to set a column span (my case). Here is a sample of what I have been
testing with:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<test>
<a>
<b>ab</b>
<b>ab</b>
</a>
<a>
<b>abcd</b>
</a>
</test>
Here is the style sheet:
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:apply-templates />
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="test">
<table><tbody>
<xsl:apply-templates select="a" mode="pre"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="a" mode="process"/>
</tbody></table>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="a" mode="pre">
<xsl:value-of select="count(*)" />
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="a" mode="process">
<tr>
<td>
<xsl:value-of select="count(*)" />
</td>
<xsl:apply-templates />
</tr>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="b">
<td>
<xsl:apply-templates />
</td>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Here is what the output looks like:
<table>
<tbody>21<tr>
<td>2</td>
<td>ab</td>
<td>ab</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>1</td>
<td>abcd</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
Which renders like:
21
2 ab ab
1 abcd
The extra numbers in the output were just to prove that I had the necessary
information
to do what I would like. What I would really like for output is:
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>ab</td>
<td>ab</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">abcd</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
I really appreciate any insight or suggestions and don't mind a response
that just points to
an example or some documentation that I can understand (I didn't get very
far with the
w3c recommendation).
Thanks,
David Morris
