[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] transformation of narrative documents with nested ele
 I am an xml-xsl newbie, and I'm writing some xsl templates for a small CMS that I'm coding, using PHP(+Dom extension) and MySql. At the moment i have some problems in the html transformation of this file called news_list.xml. consider the following xml source: ------------------------------------------------- 1 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> 2 <news_list> 3 4 <!-- other news --> 5 6 <news id="1" topic="a_topic"> 7 <title lang="en"> The English title </title> 8 <title lang="it"> the Italian title </title> 9 <author> me </author> 11 <date lang="en" day="16" month="January" year="2005"/> 12 <date lang="it" day="16" month="Gennaio" year="2005"/> 13 14 <text lang="en"> 15 <bold>This is a bold text </bold> 16 <emph> This is an italic text </emph> 17 <bold>this is <emph> an italic text nested</emph> inside a bold text </bold> <!-- here is my problem --> 18 </text> 19 <text lang="it"> 20 bla bla bla in italian... 21 </text> 22 23 </news> 24 <!-- other news --> 25 </news_list> -------------------------------------------------- I would like to transform this in html, according to the following goals: * I have to select only the news where an English title is available * I have to transform all the elements inside the English description, and they may occur as nested elements, as in line 17: X PATH: /news_list/news/description[lang='it']/bold/emph at the moment i wrote this stylesheet, that does not achieve the second goal: i have a correct output for line 15 and 16, but i have no output for line 17 -------------------------------------------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="html" encoding="iso-8859-1"/> <xsl:template match="/"> <div class="news_list"> <xsl:apply-templates select="/news_list/news"/> </div> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="/news_list/news"> <xsl:if test="title[@lang='en']"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="position()=1"> <div class="first_news"> <xsl:call-template name="news_en"/><br/> </div> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <div class="news"> <xsl:call-template name="news_en"/><br/> </div> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:if> </xsl:template> <xsl:template name="news_en">
<sup id="position_number">
<xsl:value-of select="position()"/>
</sup>
<big class="news_title"><xsl:value-of select="title[@lang='en']"/></big>
<div class="text_en">
<xsl:apply-templates select="text[@lang='en']"/>
</div>
</xsl:template><xsl:template match="text[@lang='en']"> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="//bold"> <xsl:element name="strong"> <xsl:value-of select="."/> </xsl:element> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="//emph"> <xsl:element name="i"> <xsl:value-of select="."/> </xsl:element> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> -------------------------------------------------- I tested this stylesheet also with xslproc, so i think this is not a problem of the PhpDom implementation, but a problem in my XPATH sintax..... Thank you in advance for your attention, _Andrea
