Hi,

I am working with XSLT.
My job will be to convert the value of each element as a child element.Also to convert each Attribute of Each element as child elemnets.

e.g.

source xml:

<Policy st="1">Active</Policy>

target xml:

<Policyst>1</Policyst>
<PolicyValue>Active</PolicyValue>

For the entire xml file I need to convert like that.

Please Help me.Thanks in advance.

Perhaps you can show a more complete example. I can't tell from your description what you would want to do with elements that have element children, elements with mixed content, elements whose name is in a namespace, etc.

I have an XML file :

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

<PolicyInfo>
    <Policy Status="1">Active</Policy>
    <Annuitant Status="-1">Active</Annuitant>
    <Role Status="0">Not Active</Role>
    <Agent Status="1">Dead</Agent>
</PolicyInfo>

XSL file I am using :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
   version="1.0">
  <xsl:output indent="yes" />
  <xsl:strip-space elements="*" />
  <xsl:template match="*">
    <xsl:copy>

      <xsl:if test="@*">
        <xsl:element name="{current()}">
          <xsl:value-of select="current()" />
        </xsl:element>
        <xsl:for-each select="@*">
          <xsl:element name="{name()}">
            <xsl:value-of select="." />
          </xsl:element>
        </xsl:for-each>
    </xsl:if>
      <xsl:apply-templates />
    </xsl:copy>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

O/P generated:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<PolicyInfo>
  <Policy>
    <Status>1</Status>Active</Policy>
  <Annuitant>
    <Status>-1</Status>Active</Annuitant>
  <Role>
    <Status>0</Status>Not Active</Role>
  <Agent>
    <Status>1</Status>Dead</Agent>
</PolicyInfo>

Requird O/P:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<PolicyInfo>
    <Policy>
            <PolicyStatus>1</PolicyStatus>
        <StstusValue>Active</StstusValue>
    </Policy>
    <Annuitant>
            <AnnuitantStatus>-1</AnnuitantStatus>
        <AnnuitantValue>Active</AnnuitantValue>
    </Annuitant>
      <Role>
            <RoleStatus>0</RoleStatus>
        <RoleValue>Not Active</RoleValue>
    </Role>
     <Agent>
            <AgentStatus>1</AgentStatus>
        <AgentValue>Dead</AgentValue>
    </Agent>
</PolicyInfo>

I need dynamically transforming the xml file.Node names should not be hard coded.Because the actual xml I will be using is a big one.

Thanks,
kudzuconf

Add a template rule for text nodes:

<xsl:template match="text()">
  <xsl:element name="{name(..)}Value">
    <xsl:value-of select="."/>
  </xsl:element>
</xsl:template>

It seems You are a friend indeed...Thanks for the guidance.I am your FAN

I need to add a restriction in the previous
.xsl file.

Example:

XML File:

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

<PolicyInfo>
    <Policy Status="1">Active</Policy>
    <Annuitant Code="-1">Active</Annuitant>
    <Role Number="0">Not Active</Role>
    <Agent Status="1">Dead</Agent>
    <Dealer>NewDealer</Dealer>
</PolicyInfo>

XSL File:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
   version="1.0">
  <xsl:output indent="yes" />
  <xsl:strip-space elements="*" />

  <xsl:template match="*">
    <xsl:copy>
      <xsl:if test="@*">
        <xsl:for-each select="@*">
          <xsl:element name="{concat(name(..),name())}">
            <xsl:value-of select="." />
          </xsl:element>
         </xsl:for-each>
     </xsl:if>
      <xsl:apply-templates />
    </xsl:copy>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template match="text()">
     <xsl:element name="{name(..)}Value">
             <xsl:value-of select="."/>
     </xsl:element>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>


O/P:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<PolicyInfo>
    <Policy>
            <PolicyStatus>1</PolicyStatus>
        <StstusValue>Active</StstusValue>
    </Policy>
    <Annuitant>
            <AnnuitantStatus>-1</AnnuitantStatus>
        <AnnuitantValue>Active</AnnuitantValue>
    </Annuitant>
      <Role>
            <RoleStatus>0</RoleStatus>
        <RoleValue>Not Active</RoleValue>
    </Role>
     <Agent>
            <AgentStatus>1</AgentStatus>
        <AgentValue>Dead</AgentValue>
    </Agent>
     <Dealer>
    <DealerValue>NewDealer</Dealer>
     </Dealer>
</PolicyInfo>

I need the text nodes having attribute only be formatted,
the text nodes without any attribute must remain same.

Required O/P:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<PolicyInfo>
    <Policy>
        <PolicyStatus>1</PolicyStatus>
        <StstusValue>Active</StstusValue>
    </Policy>
    <Annuitant>
        <AnnuitantStatus>-1</AnnuitantStatus>
        <AnnuitantValue>Active</AnnuitantValue>
    </Annuitant>
      <Role>
        <RoleStatus>0</RoleStatus>
        <RoleValue>Not Active</RoleValue>
    </Role>
     <Agent>
        <AgentStatus>1</AgentStatus>
        <AgentValue>Dead</AgentValue>
    </Agent>
     <Dealer>NewDealer</Dealer>
</PolicyInfo>


Thanks in advance for any advice.

Add the rule

<xsl:template match="*[not(@*|*)]">
  <xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</xsl:template>

ie if an element has no attributes or element children, copy it unchanged.

Looking at this code:

      <xsl:if test="@*">
        <xsl:for-each select="@*">
          <xsl:element name="{concat(name(..),name())}">
            <xsl:value-of select="." />
          </xsl:element>
         </xsl:for-each>
     </xsl:if>

the xsl:if is unnecessary since if there are no attributes the for-each will do nothing.
