[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] [no subject]THE PROBLEM The problem I am having with the XSL below is with the 'ThisHotelID' variable and 'HotelURL' variable. I don't get an error but I can't seem to be able to get the value of the 'ThisHotelID' variable into the variable of 'HotelURL' - it seems to just ignore it and parse the variable as if it's empty?! MY QUESTIONS What am I doing wrong here? Are you not able to put a variable within another variable? What is the best way to do this? ---------------------------------------- CODE ---------------------------------------- XML 1 (hotelinfo.xml) <Hotel> <HotelID>1234567</HotelID> <HotelName>Hotel Name Here</HotelName> <HotelAddress>Hotel Address Here</HotelAddress> <City>City Name</City> <Country>Country Name</Country> <StarRating>5</StarRating> <!-- There is lots more information in this xml file omitted here to save space --> </Hotel> XML 2 (hotellist.xml) <hotels> <hotel id="1234567"> <hotelname>Hotel Name Here</hotelname> <hotelurl>/link/to/hotel/url/on/server.php</hotelurl> <latitude>18.76624</latitude> <longitude>98.99526</longitude> </hotel> <hotel id="7654321"> <hotelname>Hotel Name Here</hotelname> <hotelurl>/link/to/hotel/url/on/server.php</hotelurl> <latitude>18.76624</latitude> <longitude>98.99526</longitude> </hotel> <!-- There are lots more hotels in this xml file omitted here to save space --> </hotels> COMBINED XML FILE (combined.xml) <hoteldetails> <file href="http://www.mydomain.org/hotels/hotelinfo.xml"/> <file href="http://www.mydomain.org/hotels/hotellist.xml"/> </hoteldetails> XSL FILE (hotel.xsl) <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="html" encoding="UTF-8" doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" doctype-system="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"/> <xsl:template match="hoteldetails"> <h1><xsl:value-of select="document(file/@href)/Hotel/HotelName"/></h1> <p><xsl:value-of select="document(file/@href)/Hotel/Address"/></p> <xsl:variable name="ThisHotelID"><xsl:value-of select="document(file/@href)/Hotel/HotelID" /></xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="HotelURL"><xsl:value-of select="document(file/@href)/hotels/hotel[@id='{$ThisHotelID}']/hotelurl" /></xsl:variable> <p> <a href="http://www.mydomain.org{$HotelURL}" title="Click to view the {document(file/@href)/Hotel/HotelName}" target="_top"> <img src="http://www.mydomain.org/hotels/images/image.jpg" alt="{document(file/@href)/Hotel/HotelName}" /> </a> </p> <!-- There are a lot more hotels and hotels info in this xml file omitted here to save space --> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet>
