Raj,
If you want to generate a table with a single column then you do not
need access to siblings, you get that by processing the all the nodes in
document order with your existing templates. You just need to replace
> <xsl:apply-templates select="IDENTIFICATION"/>
> <xsl:apply-templates select="APPEARANCE"/>
> <xsl:apply-templates select="STORAGE"/>
with
<xsl:apply-templates/>
If you need a to generate a TR for each FRUIT then you need access to
following siblings like below:
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="FRUIT">
<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE>XSL TEST</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY>
<TABLE>
<xsl:apply-templates select="IDENTIFICATION"/>
</TABLE>
</BODY>
</HTML>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="IDENTIFICATION">
<TR>
<TD><xsl:value-of select="NAME"/></TD>
<xsl:apply-templates select="following-sibling::APPEARANCE[1]"/>
</TR>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="APPEARANCE">
<TD><xsl:value-of select="COLOR"/></TD>
<xsl:apply-templates select="following-sibling::STORAGE[1]"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="STORAGE">
<TD><xsl:value-of select="TEMP"/></TD>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
You process from the FRUIT template only the IDENTIFICATION elements. In
the IDENTIFICATION template output the TR and the first column then
process the following APPEARANCE. The template matching APPEARANCE
output a column and will process the following STORAGE that will just
output the last column.
Of course if you have control over your input is is better to change it
as suggested in other posts.
Hope that helps,
George

Hi,
I have got a simple XML like this which has some information about fruits
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone ="yes"?>
<FRUIT>
<IDENTIFICATION>
<NAME>APPLE</NAME>
</IDENTIFICATION>
<APPEARANCE>
<COLOR>RED</COLOR>
</APPEARANCE>
<STORAGE>
<TEMP>STORE APPLES UNDER 20 DEGREE</TEMP>
</STORAGE>
<IDENTIFICATION>
<NAME>GRAPE</NAME>
</IDENTIFICATION>
<APPEARANCE>
<COLOR>BLACK</COLOR>
</APPEARANCE>
<STORAGE>
<TEMP>STORE GRAPES UNDER 30 DEGREE</TEMP>
</STORAGE>
</FRUIT>
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When i ran the above XML with the following XSL and Xalan parser,
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="FRUIT">
<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE>XSL TEST</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY>
<TABLE>
<xsl:apply-templates select="IDENTIFICATION"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="APPEARANCE"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="STORAGE"/>
</TABLE>
</BODY>
</HTML>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="IDENTIFICATION">
<TR><TD><xsl:value-of select="NAME"/></TD></TR>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="APPEARANCE">
<TR><TD><xsl:value-of select="COLOR"/></TD></TR>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="STORAGE">
<TR><TD><xsl:value-of select="TEMP"/></TD></TR>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I got the output as :
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
APPLE
GRAPE
RED
BLACK
STORE APPLES UNDER 20 DEGREE
STORE GRAPES UNDER 30 DEGREE
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
But i need the output as
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
APPLE
RED
STORE APPLES UNDER 20 DEGREE
GRAPE
BLACK
STORE GRAPES UNDER 30 DEGREE
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
i.e the details of apples appearing first followed by grape.
Please let me the know the ways of doing this - to identify the
following node and process accordingly.
Regards,
Raj
