Hi I’m new to XSLT but I manage some how to get some results from my XML data file and after that to merge them in PHP so I have now good PHP page. The thing is that the result that I get is to big I have like 40 rows of data and the page is 300kb. Just text :) . I’m trying to find a way to restrict the data whit something like “max results for page = 10“ :) but I don’t now how to do it, and to have “next 10 results” the ting is any help will be of use

I’m using <xsl:for-each select="Developments/Development> to display the data

P.S. sorry if it looks stupid question

    OK after reading the forum:
<xsl:for-each select="Developments/Development [position() &gt; 0 and position() &lt; 11]"> this shows from number 1 to number 10 - next is to put "NEXT 10 results"
any idea [/t]

Hi,

I am not sure if you can get the output you want, however you can use parameters to get different results.

e.g.

0-10, 11-15, etc...

when these are clicked, it could pass a value to a parameter and change the output...

Just a thought

this will worck for me. just how, i sed im new so litle bit help will be wery good

I will need some of your XML and XSLT to help.

Please post and tell me what XSLT version you are using.

this is the XSLT im using Macromedia to make it, the ting is that they have wery nice tutorial how to make XSLT page from existing XML :)

so this is 10x for your help in advance :)
P.S. - sorry for my bad english

This code looks fine except that the predicate [position() > 0 and position() < 11] needs to be changed to something like [position() >= $start and position() <= $start + $size}, where $start and $size are declared as global stylesheet parameters using xsl:param, and the actual values of the parameters are supplied at run-time by the calling application. The exact way that you supply parameter values depends on the XSLT processor API that you are using.

it is starts to get more complicated and more. How i can chek the processor API that im using. i have to chek alsou for the sintaxys of xsl:param. im starting to like this forum :)

Don't try to use the forum as a substitute for a good text book!

For details of your processor API you first need to know which XSLT processor you are using.

xsl:param you can find documented in any XSLT reference book.
