[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] Using values from one node tree to iterate/recurse ove
 I'm just hoping for someone to give me a nudge in the right direction (given that I'm so far out of my depth, that a snorkel isn't going to help...) I have a simple XML fragment: <?xml version="1.0"?> <view action="list" controller="story" display="list"> <record_list begin_record="1" end_record="2" last_page="1" page_number="1" page_size="10" total_found="2" type="story"> <structure> <field label="ID" name="id" type="id">id</field> <field label="Headline" name="headline" type="name">headline</ field> <field label="Bodycopy" name="bodycopy" type="textarea">bodycopy</field> <field label="Picture" name="picture" type="image">picture</field> </structure> <record sig="47c44488b7a614.15734104" type="story"> <id>2</id> <headline>Fog in Channel, Europe Cut Off</headline> <bodycopy>There was fog in the channel. No French cheese for us.</bodycopy> <picture>cheese.png</picture> </record> <record sig="47c44488bb80e5.13211401" type="story"> <id>1</id> <headline>Man Bites Dog</headline> <bodycopy>Today a man bit a dog</bodycopy> <picture>dog.png</picture> </record> </record_list> </view> and I want to use the <structure> element as field definitions to format the <record> elements as rows in an HTML table. What I have so far is: <?xml version='1.0'?> <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0"> <xsl:output method="html" doctype-system="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd" doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" /> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:call-template name="head" /> <body> <xsl:apply-templates select="//view" /> </body> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="view[@display='list']"> <xsl:variable name="rec_type" select="record_list/@type"/> <xsl:variable name="total_found" select="record_list/@total_found"/> <xsl:variable name="page_size" select="record_list/@page_size"/> <xsl:variable name="page_number" select="record_list/@page_number"/> <xsl:variable name="last_page" select="record_list/@last_page"/> <xsl:variable name="structure" select="record_list/structure"/> <h2><xsl:value-of select="$rec_type"/> Listing</h2> <p>Showing <xsl:value-of select="record_list/@begin_record"/> to <xsl:value-of select="record_list/@end_record" /> of <xsl:value-of select="$total_found" /> records</p> <xsl:apply-templates select="record_list/record"> <xsl:with-param name="structure" select="$structure" /> </xsl:apply-templates> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="record"> <xsl:param name="structure"/> <!-- newbie problem !!!! --> <xsl:value-of select="$structure" /> <xsl:value-of select="." /> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> What I want to be able to do is recurse through the structure, pulling the definitions from the attributes, and the values from each record. At least, that's what I *think* I want to do, but I'm at the very bottom of the steep learning curve, and, well, any general pointers would be greatly appreciated.
