Re: XSL-List Digest V4 #273

Jacob,
first, your input XML needs to be well-formed, that is
all attribute values must be contained in single- or
double-quotes, you must have exactly 1 root element
(named any name) and every element must be closed.

Second, suppose your input now looks like this:
<root>
<INPUT TYPE="text" name="q" size="12" maxlength="255"
value=""/> 
<INPUT type="submit" name="btnG" VALUE=" Google "/>
<input size="30" name="p"/>
<input type="submit" value="Search"/>
</root>

you can in 1 template use an xsl:choose element to
handle an input element with a type=submit differently
than other types of input elements.
try this XSL:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
	<xsl:output method="html" />

<xsl:template match="INPUT">
  <xsl:call-template name="ProcessInputElement"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="input">
  <xsl:call-template name="ProcessInputElement"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template name="ProcessInputElement">
  <xsl:variable name="MyType" select="concat(@TYPE,
@type)"/>
  <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="translate($MyType,
'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ',
'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ') = 'submit'">
      <xsl:variable name="MyLabel"
select="concat(@VALUE, @value)"/>
	  <do type="accept" label="{$MyLabel}"/>
    </xsl:when>
    <xsl:otherwise>
      <xsl:variable name="MyName"
select="concat(@NAME, @name)"/>
      <xsl:variable name="MySize"
select="concat(@SIZE, @size)"/>
      <xsl:variable name="MyMaxlength"
select="concat(@MAXLENGTH, @maxlength)"/>
	  <input name="{$MyName}" size="{$MySize}"
maxlength="{$MyMaxlength}"/>
    </xsl:otherwise>
  </xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
