RE: Confused by xsl:for-each

Hi,

Although you say this should work, it does not. The select="//a" seems
not to work.
When I write

<xsl:value-of select="number(.)"/> I get 1 for one td
BUT <xsl:value-of select="number(//a) I get 0, although there are two
<a..> inside <td>.

Whats wrong here.

Hi,

  if you want only the <a> tags in your output without its attributes
and text node then you should be using xsl:copy and not xsl:copy-of.
  Else if you want <a>'s attr's and text then what you  are doing is
correct. Just put a root tag for the target document as below.

<xsl:template match="/">
	<foo>
		<xsl:apply-templates select="relation"/>
	</foo>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="relation"> <!-- match is fine-->
	<xsl:for-each select="//a">
		<xsl:copy-of select="."/>
	</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

Manpreet Singh

Hello,

I am a bit confused how/why I can't get for-each to work here.

Input:

...
<tr>
  <relation name="relatedAddress" type="address">
    <td>
      <a href="external/address.html">Adresse 1</a><br />
      <a href="error/code.html">Adresse 2</a>
    </td>
  </relation>
</tr>
...
