[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] Urgent Help Needed in XSLT
 Hi XSLT Professionals,
I'm a beginner of XSLT. I have following XML that used by a discussion group:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<livelink applanguage='USA' appversion='9.1.0' dtdversion='1.2'>
<llnode created='2002-09-19T14:42:37' name='1st Topic' objname='Topic' size='0'>

</llnode>

I need to create a html to get the latest 10 Discussion Topic. I did following XSLT:
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl = "http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version = "1.0" >
<xsl:output method = "html" />
<xsl:template match="livelink">
<html>
<body>
<table>
<tr>
<td><b><br/>Latest Discussion Posts
</b></td>
</tr>
<xsl:for-each select="//*[@objname='Topic'] | //*[@objname='Reply']">
<xsl:sort select="@created" order="descending" />
<xsl:if test="position() < 11">
<tr>
<td>
<xsl:value-of select="ancestor-or-self::*[@objname='Topic']/@name" />
<xsl:text> - </xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="@created" />
</td>
</tr>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</table>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
The output is as follows:
Latest Discussion Posts
5th Topic - 2002-09-19T15:14:17
5th Topic - 2002-09-19T15:09:54
11th Topic - 2002-09-19T15:06:37
11th Topic - 2002-09-19T15:04:52
11th Topic - 2002-09-19T15:03:10
11th Topic - 2002-09-19T15:02:00
......
The above output isn't what I want. I want each topic only display once.
I have struggled with the problem for three days. Could you please help me with this? I will really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance,
Yan
