Is it possible to access your caller's (not parent) context while
inside a <xsl:template match...> or <xsl:for-each...>? Here is the xml
I'm using:
<report-set>
...<report>
.....<detail-data>
.......<detail-column position="1" dsc="col1" sum_fg="0"/>
.......<detail-column position="2" dsc="col2" sum_fg="1"/>
.......<detail-column position="3" dsc="col3" sum_fg="1"/>
.......<detail-column position="4" dsc="col4" sum_fg="1"/>
.......<detail-column position="5" dsc="col5" sum_fg="1"/>
.....</detail-data>
.....<invoice inv_id="232243" >
.......<break level="1">
.........<break level="2">
...........<bre ak level="3">
.............<d etail>
............... <row>
............... ..<field position="1">Te xt1</field>
............... ..<field position="2">34 </field>
............... ..<field position="3">34 00.00</field>
............... ..<field position="4">0. 00</field>
............... ..<field position="5">34 00.00</field>
............... </row>
............... <row>
............... ..<field position="1">Te xt2</field>
............... ..<field position="2">96 </field>
............... ..<field position="3">96 00</field>
............... ..<field position="4">0. 00</field>
............... ..<field position="5">96 00.00</field>
............... </row>
.............</detail>
...........</break>
...........<bre ak level="3">
.............<d etail>
............... <row>
............... ..<field position="1">Te xt1</field>
............... ..<field position="2">13 </field>
............... ..<field position="3">13 00.00</field>
............... ..<field position="4">-1300.00</field>
............... ..<field position="5">0. 00</field>
............... </row>
............... <row>
............... ..<field position="1">Te xt2</field>
............... ..<field position="2">13 </field>
............... ..<field position="3">26 00</field>
............... ..<field position="4">0. 00</field>
............... ..<field position="5">26 00.00</field>
............... </row>
.............</detail>
...........</break>
.........</break>
.......</break>
.....</invoice>
...</report>
</report-set>
When I am in the <break> context (of which there can be any number), I
want to output a sum of each field based on the <detail-data> from the
top. I've tried to apply-templates on the
/report-set/report/detail-data/detail-column which can give me a
column for each <detail-column>, but I need to sum from the context
where the apply-templates was called. Is this possible? I've hacked a
way by passing my context position and break level and going back to
look for the break i want, but it's inefficient and hard to read, not
to mention ugly.
Does anyone have any ideas? Please tell me there's an easier way!
