Hi All,

Below is the XMl and Xslt i am having problem with template.

XML

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>


  <Sheets>
	<Sheet Id="Sh1">
                  <Main Id="M1">
	         <current>	
                         <title>World</title>
                         <story>Hello world</story>
	         </current>
	     </Main>
	     <sport Id="S1">
                      <current>
		<title>Boxing</title>
                          <story>Boxing between A and B</story>
	         </current>
                 </sport>
	</Sheet>
  </Sheets>

XSLT :

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" 
      xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
      exclude-result-prefixes="xs"
      version="2.0">

   <xsl:template match="/">
        
        <xsl:apply-templates/>       
        
    </xsl:template>

    <xsl:template match="sheet">
        <xsl:if test="@id='Sh1'">
            <xsl:apply-templates select="/*[@Id='M1']"/>
        </xsl:if> 
    </xsl:template>


    <xsl:template match="current">
        <xsl:value-of select="title">
        <br/>
        <xsl:value-of select="story">
    </xsl:template>


</xsl:stylesheet>

Below part is not returning the desired result.which should Select Main element.

'<xsl:apply-templates select="/*[@Id='M1']"/>'

I have tired executing Xpath directly in the Editor and its working fine :

/sheets/sheet[@Id='Sh1']/*[@Id='Main']

Can u tell me where i am doing wrong.

Thanks

You need

Code:

<xsl:apply-templates select="*[@Id='M1']"/>

or

Code:

<xsl:apply-templates select="./*[@Id='M1']"/>

Also note that in the XML you have 'Sheet', starting with an upper case 'S', while you match="sheet" only matches 'sheet' elements starting with a lower case 's'.

You also seem to be confused as to whether it is "sheet" or "Sheet". XML is case-sensitive.
