Hello, the XML below is a sharply simplified version of Memphis weather
data available from the National Weather Service's SOAP web service[1].
<dwml version="1.0"> <data> <time-layout time-coordinate="local" summarization="none"> <layout-key>k-p24h-n7-1</layout-key> <start-valid-time period-name="Tomorrow"/> <!-- Thursday --> <start-valid-time period-name="Friday"/> <start-valid-time period-name="Saturday"/> <start-valid-time period-name="Sunday"/> <start-valid-time period-name="Monday"/> <start-valid-time period-name="Tuesday"/> <start-valid-time period-name="Wednesday"/> </time-layout> <time-layout time-coordinate="local" summarization="none"> <layout-key>k-p24h-n7-2</layout-key> <start-valid-time period-name="Tonight"/> <--- Wed. night --> <start-valid-time period-name="Tomorrow Night/> <start-valid-time period-name="Friday Night"/> <start-valid-time period-name="Saturday Night"/> <start-valid-time period-name="Sunday Night"/> <start-valid-time period-name="Monday Night"/> <start-valid-time period-name="Tuesday Night"/> </time-layout> <parameters applicable-location="point1"> <temperature type="maximum" units="Fahrenheit" time-layout="k-p24h-n7-1"> <name>Daily Maximum Temperature</name> <value>65</value> <value>66</value> <value>68</value> <value>71</value> <value>72</value> <value>63</value> <value>60</value> </temperature> <temperature type="minimum" units="Fahrenheit" time-layout="k-p24h-n7-2"> <name>Daily Minimum Temperature</name> <value>55</value> <value>44</value> <value>44</value> <value>46</value> <value>50</value> <value>49</value> <value>41</value> </temperature> </parameters> </data> </dwml> With this data, I would like to create a simple listing as follows: Daily Maximum Temperatures: ----------------------- Tomorrow: 65 Friday: 66 Saturday: 68 ... Daily Minimum Temperatures: ------------------------ Tonight: 55 Tomorrow Night: 44 Friday Night: 44 ... Note that, in the XML data, the blocks of time-layouts are tied to the Max. and Min. temps below via the layout-key element / time-layout attribute combination. I guess my questions are (1) how can I tie the time-layout elements and temperature elements together using XSLT 1.0 using the layout-key and (2) how can I tie each period-name to its corresponding position with the temperatures that it is associated with In other words, how can I create my table above? Thanks, Glen [1] http://www.weather.gov/xml/
