Re: Result count in a for-each with an embedded if

Hi Tim,

This is quite straightforward:

xml source:
----------
<articles>
	<article ID="article1">
		<title>
			A Title about frogs
		</title>
		<detail>
			Some detail on frogs.
		</detail>
	</article>
	<article ID="article2">
		<title>
			A Title about cats
		</title>
		<detail>
			Some detail on cats.
		</detail>

	</article>
	<article ID="article3">
		<title>
			A Title about cats and dogs
		</title>
		<detail>
			Do dogs eat cats.
		</detail>

	</article>
</articles>


stylesheet:
----------
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
 <xsl:output method="text"/>
 <xsl:variable name="vLower" select="'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'"/>
 <xsl:variable name="vUpper" select="'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'"/>
 <xsl:variable name="keyword" select="'Cat'"/>

  <xsl:template match="articles">
    <xsl:for-each select="article
                        [contains(translate(detail, $vLower, $vUpper),
                                  translate($keyword, $vLower, $vUpper)
                                  )
                        ]">
      <xsl:text>&#xA;</xsl:text><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(title)" />
      <xsl:if test="position() = last()">
         <xsl:text>&#xA;</xsl:text>There were <xsl:value-of select="position()"/>
articles found.
      </xsl:if>
    </xsl:for-each>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>



Result:
------

Hi,

Tring to do a count of the results of the following snip:

<xsl:template match="articles">
	<xsl:for-each select="article">
		<xsl:if test="contains(translate
(detail,'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz','ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'),trans
late
($keyword,'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz','ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'))">
			<xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(title)"/>
		</xsl:if>
	</xsl:for-each>
	There were XX articles found.
</xsl:template>

Need to return the XX value.
I can't find a way of putting the contains test into the for-each 
select so I could use the position()(?).

Ideas would be appreciated.
