Re: selecting from sequences
Sorry,
- the position of the first b?
<!-- 0 means that there is no value. -->
<xsl:variable name="index" as="xs:integer" select="
(
for $i in 1 to count($seq) return
if ($seq[$i][self::b]) then
$i
else
(),
0
)[1]"/>
- the position of the first b?
<!-- 0 means that there is no value. -->
<xsl:variable name="index" as="xs:integer" select="
(
for $i in 1 to count($seq) return
$seq[$i][self::b],
0 )[1]"/>
- everything before the first b
<xsl:sequence select="subsequence($seq, 1, $index)"/>
- everything from the first b to the end
<xsl:sequence select="subsequence($seq, $index)"/>

Subject: selecting from sequences
hi group,
I have question which must have been on this list before, but I can't
find the answer.
In my style sheet I make a selection of the elements and pass that to a
template. In that template I can reference this sequence as $seq.
Selecting from $seq appears to be not that easy, because I can't use
axes. Axes have a document scope whereas I want to do something within
the sequence.
If for example $seq contains elements a, b, c, b, e:
how do I select
- everything before the first b
- everything from the first b to the end
- the position of the first b?
As $seq[self::b][1]/preceding-sibling::* is not good because it possibly
selects element outside the sequence, but are preceding-siblings in the
document.
Thanks in advance,
Ruud
