I am doing an identity transformation that has presented me with a
problem. The element <Location> in the original XML must have one and
only one of seven possible attributes. Whichever attribute is present, I
must keep its name but change its value. I have created a brute-force
template that I assume will work. It ascertains the attribute's name and
assigns it a new value. This is so ugly I am hanging my head in shame.
There must be a more elegant method
Mark xsl:template match="Location"> <xsl:param name="placement-index"/> <Location> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="@minisheet"> <xsl:attribute name="minisheet" select="$placement-index"/> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="@souvenir-sheet"> <xsl:attribute name="souvenir-sheet" select="$placement-index"/> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="@gutter"> <xsl:attribute name="gutter" select="$placement-index"/> </xsl:when> </xsl:choose> <!-- There are more attribute names, but you get the idea --> </Location> </xsl:template>
