Basix question on a string, (I beleive)

[Paolo Pignatelli]

I have the following XML file:
--------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>

<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="sample2.xslt"?>

<Employees>

<Employee>

<Name>Lieder</Name>

<Age>4</Age>

<Greeting>Awooo!</Greeting>

</Employee>

<Employee>

<Name>Lieder2</Name>

<Age>3</Age>

<Greeting>Awooo too!</Greeting>

</Employee>

</Employees>

------------------

and the following xslt file:

--------

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/intellisense/ie5" >

<xsl:template match="/">

<xsl:apply-templates select="TopInformation" />

<xsl:for-each select="Employees/Employee">

<b>Name of Employee (2) : </b><xsl:value-of select="Name" /><br/>

<b>Age:</b><xsl:value-of select="Age" /><br/>

<b> My greeting is: </b><xsl:value-of select="Greeting" /><br/>

</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="TopInformation">

<xsl:value-of select="<SomeString />"

</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

---------

It seems to work. Now, I would like the top of the resultant fileto have
the following line:

<gallery timer="3" order="sequential" fadetime="2" looping="yes" xpos="0"
ypos="0">

How do I do that?

TIA,

Paolo

Just write it in your stylesheet at the top level:

<xsl:template match="/">

<gallery timer="3" order="sequential" fadetime="2" looping="yes"
xpos="0" ypos="0">

<xsl:apply-templates select="TopInformation" />

<xsl:for-each select="Employees/Employee">

<b>Name of Employee (2) : </b><xsl:value-of select="Name" /><br/>

<b>Age:</b><xsl:value-of select="Age" /><br/>

<b> My greeting is: </b><xsl:value-of select="Greeting" /><br/>

</xsl:for-each>

</gallery>

</xsl:template>

I still get an error when I write this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/intellisense/ie5" >

<xsl:template match="/">

<gallery timer="3" order="sequential" fadetime="2" looping="yes"

xpos="0" ypos="0">

<xsl:apply-templates select="TopInformation" />

<xsl:for-each select="Employees/Employee">

<b>Name of Employee (2) : </b><xsl:value-of select="Name" /><br/>

<b>Age:</b><xsl:value-of select="Age" /><br/>

<b> My greeting is: </b><xsl:value-of select="Greeting" /><br/>

</xsl:for-each>

</gallery>

</xsl:template>

------------------

What am I doing wrong?

TIA,

Paolo

Hi, and thanks.

Firstly, I get a squiggly line under "gallery" when editing in Visual
Studio.net. then when I try to view, I just get :

Name of Employee (2) : Lieder1
Age:4
My greeting is: Awooo!
Name of Employee (2) : Lieder2
Age:3
My greeting is: Awooo too!
-------------
from the XML cited. I tried so many variations, that I thought that it was
an error, but it just does not appear. (Lieder is the name of my dog.)

Thanks, and woof,

Paolo

Ooops, sorry, I have no idea what do you expect it to be. I've never
heard of <gallery> tag in HTML.

No, it is not a tag, it is a simple string that I want to put in there. For
e.g, this works:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/intellisense/ie5" >

<xsl:template match="/">

<p> woof

</p>

<xsl:for-each select="Employees/Employee">

Name of Employee (2) :<xsl:value-of select="Name" /><br/>

Age:<xsl:value-of select="Age" /><br/>

My greeting is: <xsl:value-of select="Greeting" /><br/>

</xsl:for-each>

</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

--------------

But how do I substitute "woof" between the <p></p> with the string that
looks like a tag? Is there an escape chartacter ...?

TIA,

Paolo

<xsl:template match="/">

<![CDATA[

<gallery timer="3" order="sequential" fadetime="2" looping="yes"

xpos="0" ypos="0">

]]>

<p></p>

<xsl:for-each select="Employees/Employee">

Thanks.

Merry Christmas,
