[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] Unable to get text() of node
 I'm a very new member (just joined) to this mailing list and to xsl in general so I hope I can get some help here. Please be patient :) I have the following xml content: <tree>
<child>First Child</child>
<child>
<childname>SecondChild</childname>
Second Child
</child>
<child>
<childname>ThirdChild</childname>
Third Child
</child>
</tree>I want to create a xsl that will return a tree with just the text of each <child> node without the text of any descendents. I tried using this xsl: <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="html"/> <xsl:template match="/"> <tree> <xsl:for-each select="tree/child/childname"> <childText> <xsl:value-of select="../text()"/> </childText> </xsl:for-each> </tree> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> I'm selecting only nodes that have a childname child (not interested in nodes that don't) and I'm trying to get the text() of the parent. The output is in fact 2 nodes as expected but they're empty. If I choose "tree/child" in the loop and use "text()" as value of I get 3 nodes back where only the first has a value which leads me to believe that the text in the other children is not really considered as text. What's the right syntax for the results I'm expecting? Just to make things clear - I'm expecting this output: <tree> <childText>Second Child</childText> <childText><Third Child</childText> </tree> Thank you very much Liron
