convert nodeset to a single node

newbies1234 · August 16th, 2008, 01:05 PM

I'm a new in xslt. My problem is, I cannot find the way to convert the nodeset to a single node. Let's see the following input and expected result

[u]input</u>

Code:

<mynode>
    <token>A</token>
    <token>B</token>
    <token>C</token>
</mynode>

[u]expected result</u>

Code:

<newnode>A B C</newnode>

can anyone helps?

With XSLT 2.0 this is simply

<xsl:template match="mynode">
  <newnode>
    <xsl:value-of select="token"/>
  </newnode>
</xsl:template>

With 1.0 it's

<xsl:template match="mynode">
  <newnode>
    <xsl:for-each select="token">
      <xsl:value-of select="."/>
      <xsl:if test="position()!=last()">
        <xsl:text> </xsl:text>
      </
    </
  </
</
