Dear all, I am new to XML and XSLT. My task is to convert a XML file to CSV format. I have finished matching the elements and retrieving the data and writing as comma separated values. This data is basically from a Database and unfortunately the XML file does not contain the column names of the datas. I would like to write the column names of the data in XSLT so that it can be printed in the CSV file. I would like to know how to print a text once in the CSV format using XSLT. I want to write the column names in the XSLT file so that when I convert it to a CSV file I see the column names once and the datas in many rows below them. <?xml version="1.0"?> <xsl:stylesheet version = "1.0" xmlns:xsl = "http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="text"/> product_number,product,quantity,size <xsl:value-of select="description/@product_number"/>,<xsl:value-of select="description"/>,<xsl:value-of select="quantity"/>,<xsl:value-of select="size"/> <xsl:text> </xsl:text> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> In the above stylesheet I want the output to be like the following product_number,product_id,quantity,size data1,data2,data3 data4,data5,data6 but currently my output is product_number,product_id,quantity,size data1,data2,data3 product_number,product_id,quantity,size data4,data5,data6 Kindly suggest me how to solve the above problem.any example code or suggestions are welcome. Any help in this regard is greatly appreciated and thank you very much.
