Thank you Jarno,
I've amended my xsl and that part is now working. (the new code is given
below)
Now I've just got to do a test for $german nodes with the same node name()
as in the $english node, so that my translator can do the translations which
are required without re-doing already translated nodes.
I tried adding this code
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$german/string($currentname) != ''">
<!--xsl:value-of select="$german/string($currentname") /-->
(Already translated)
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>Please translate</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
to the template
<xsl:template match="*">
<xsl:variable name="currentname" select="name()" />
<<xsl:value-of select="$currentname" />><xsl:value-of select="."
/></<xsl:value-of select="$currentname" />>
</xsl:template>
but I am now getting a error.
Error [code:201] [URI:file:/home/data/complang.xsl] [line:23]
[node:attribute 'test']
wrong expression syntax
I had guessed that an X-path cannot accept the syntax with two node-set
variables, so I converted $currentname to a string(as that is how I want it
used).
Can anyone shed any light on how to get around this problem?
Cheers, Tim
