[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] RE: Selecting an option
 hi,
I'm not sure if this is what you are asking without more information
but here it goes...
Say you have an XML file that looks like this:
<myFile>
<myValues>
<value>1</value>
<value>2</value>
<value>3</value>
<value>4</value>
<value>5</value>
</myValues>
<defaultValue>5</defaultValue>
</myFile>
And you want an html like this:
<HTML>
<Body>
<Table>
<tr>
<td>
<select name="myMenu">
<option value="1">1</option>
<option value="2">2</option>
<option value="3">3</option>
<option value="4">4</option>
<option value="5"
selected="selected">5</option>
</select>
</td>
</tr>
</Table>
</Body>
</HTML>
Then you would need this XSLT:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<body>
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<select name="myMenu">
<xsl:apply-templates
select="myFile/myValues/value">
<xsl:with-param name="default"
select="myFile/defaultValue"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>
</select>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="value">
<xsl:param name="default"/>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test=". = $default">
<option value="{.}" selected="selected"><xsl:value-of
select="."/></option>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<option value="{.}"><xsl:value-of select="."/></option>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I hope that helps. It's hard to know what you are asking for without
example XML and the relevant segment of what you've tried so far in your
XSLT.
Good luck,
Heather

Subject: Selecting an option
I want to know the better way to select one option below using XSLT:
<select name="note">
<option value="0">0</option>
<option value="1">1</option>
<option value="2">2</option>
<option value="3">3</option>
<option value="4">4</option>
<option value="5">5</option>
<option value="6">6</option>
<option value="7">7</option>
<option value="8">8</option>
<option value="9">9</option>
</select>
For example, select the 5th option when my node in XML has the same value
<option value="5" selected="selected">5</option>
