Re: Question about isolating records
Ken,
I clearly am missing something.
My stylesheet (using the two records at the bottom of this email)
creates an empty @pdf-number.
<xsl:key name="pdf-key" match="Shelfmark"
use="doc('test-xml.xml')/List/Item"/>
<xsl:template match="@* | node()">
<xsl:copy copy-namespaces="no">
<xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="Tag">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test=". eq '852'">
<Tag>
<xsl:attribute name="crawford-number"
select="@crawford-number"/>
<xsl:attribute name="pdf-number"
select="key('pdf-key', PDF, @crawford-number)"/>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</Tag>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>

Hi Ken,
Thanks. I'll read up on <xsl:key> and try to implement this.
Appreciate your response.
Regards,
Mark

Just to get you started:
- declare a key table of "Item" elements keyed by the "Shelfmark" chlid
- use the identity template to copy FILE 1
- match on the "Tag" element, copy all existing attributes
- use the "crawford-number" value as the lookup value in the
key table of File 2 (using the third argument of the key() function)
Rather than supply the written solution, that
should be enough for you to figure things out in syntax.
I hope this helps.

I have two XML files, File 1 and File 2. They contain the XML shown
below.
<Tag>852</Tag> in File 1 has a @crawford-number.
If in File 2 there is an <Item> with a
<Shelfmark> equal to the value of
@crawford-number, I want to add an @pdf-number
attribute to the <Tag>852</Tag> in File 1
containing the value of <PDF> in File 2 like so:
<Tag crawford-number="Crawford 2411." @pdf-number="016678286">852</Tag>
File 1 always contains a <Tag
@crawford>852</Tag> and File 2 always contains a
<Shelfmark>, but there may or may not be a match.
I have not a clue as to how to get started. Happy to answer any
questions.
Mark
