[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] How do I compare all similar type nodes?
 Hi,
I am trying to remove duplicate copies of context nodes from a sorted
list. My xml doc looks like this:-
<LOG>
<DIRECT>
<COMMUNICATION_TYPE> PAGETELL </COMMUNICATION_TYPE>
<Invoc_serial> 27 </Invoc_serial>
<Serial> 3087908 </Serial>
<USAGE> TELL </USAGE>
<MESSAGE_TYPE> EMOTE </MESSAGE_TYPE>
<CHARACTER_ID> 44639 </CHARACTER_ID>
<CHARACTER_STATUS> 3 </CHARACTER_STATUS>
<LOCATION_ID> 45040 </LOCATION_ID>
<TARGET_CHARACTER_ID> 2346456 </TARGET_CHARACTER_ID>
<TARGET_CHARACTER_STATUS> 6 </TARGET_CHARACTER_STATUS>
<TARGET_CHARACTER_LOCATION_ID> 23222
</TARGET_CHARACTER_LOCATION_ID>
<MESSAGE>hello</MESSAGE>
<TIME> 'Mon, 26 Nov 2001 15:40:29 +0000' </TIME>
</DIRECT>
*then a few hundred more like that*
</LOG>
My revised xml stylesheet as is looks like this:-(thanks chris)
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="html"/>
<xsl:template match ="/">
<html>
<body>
<xsl:for-each select="LOG/DIRECT/TARGET_CHARACTER_ID[. !=
preceding-sibling::TARGET_CHARACTER_ID]">
<xsl:sort select="." data-type="number"
order="ascending" />
<xsl:value-of select="position()" /><xsl:value-of
select="." />
</xsl:for-each>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
The output still includes duplicates from the sorted list. I think preceding
sibling doesnt compare all target_character_id nodes against eachother,
how can I do this to prevent prinitng out duplicates?
Cheers
Ahmad
