You still need to wrap the <xsl:for-each> instruction in a <xsl:template match="/"> declaration.

It's a very peculiar error message, because I can't see any reason why the processor would imagine that "." is intended to be the name of a variable. But this solution using tokenize() requires XSLT 2.0, and you seem to be trying to run it under Xalan, which only supports XSLT 1.0. So you need to fix that.

Code:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="2.0">
  <xsl:output method="xml" />

 <xsl:template match="/">

      <xsl:for-each select="tokenize(datastream/payload/text(), '#10;')">
    <Record>
        <BUSINESS_UNIT><xsl:value-of select="substring(.,1, 5)"/></BUSINESS_UNIT>
        <EMPLID><xsl:value-of select="substring(.,6, 11)"/></EMPLID>
        <ASOFDATE><xsl:value-of select="substring(.,17, 10)"/></ASOFDATE>

 ... etc

</Record>
     <xsl:value-of select="position()"/>
</xsl:for-each>
 
</xsl:template>    

  </xsl:stylesheet>

As Michael says, you will need to be using Saxon for this to work, as Xalon does not support XSLT 2.0 (and tokenize() is a XSLT 2.0 function).

Hi Sam and Michal,

Thanks a lot for all your support, it's working fine

could please advise me , i would like to skip the first record of the file

what should i do if i want to skip the first record of the file

You can do a test based on position(), e.g.

<xsl:if test="position() > 1">
</xsl:if>

thanks a lot for this also,

one more doubt : is the Latest Xalan parser is supporting the XSLT 2.0

mhkay · January 29th, 2008, 05:09 AM

No, there is no version of Xalan that supports XSLT 2.0. There are currently three XSLT 2.0 processors available: Saxon, AltovaXML, and Gestalt.

Hi Sam or Michael,

is there any other way we can do the XSLT transformation with out tokenize, because our client is having the Internal adapter that is referring the xalan parser

so this code is not working when we used the xalan, because as Michael said xalan parser doesnât support the XSLT2.0
