Hi All,

We are encounting a problem while transforming the XSL in Google Chrome browser. Below is the code snippet :

XML :
<message>
<lookup>
<option value="1">abc</option>
<option value="2">abc</option>
<option value="3">abc</option>
</lookup>
</message>

XSL :

<xsl:value-of select="/message/lookup/option[@value=$value]">

Here when we try to parse the xsl in google chrome, it is not understanding the option[@value=$value] part only.

I may have written half code here but my problem is why chrome is not able to fetch the text value for the $value which is being passed.

If you want i can post the exact snippets.

Any help is appricieated.

Thanks in Advance.

Consider to post minimal but complete snippets allowing us to reproduce the problem with Chrome. Have you tried other browsers or XSLT processors? Do they give the result you want? Have you checked Chrome's error console whether it indicates a problem? Without seeing where and how you set $value and a clear description of the result you want and the one you get with Chrome it is hard to help other than asking you to check what I ask for above.

Hi Martin Honnen,

Thanks for your reply.

I am posting the dummy code for you to analyze it why it is not working in chrome. We did test the same in other browsers like safari, FF but it is not working in those browsers too.

A.xsl

<xsl:variable name="varLvl">
<xsl:call-template name="getval">
<xsl:with-param name="lookup">level</xsl:with-param>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:variable>


<xsl:call-template name="trans">
<xsl:with-param name="lookup" select="$varLvl"/>
<xsl:with-param name="mode">1</xsl:with-param>
<xsl:with-param name="value" select="level"/>
</xsl:call-template>

This is the first xsl which is being transfomred, the "getlookup" and "trans" templates are in the below (b.xsl) file :


b.xsl

<xsl:template name="getval">
<xsl:param name="lookup"/>
<xsl:copy-of select="/Message"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template name="translate">
<xsl:param name="lookup"/>
<xsl:param name="mode"/>
<xsl:param name="value"/>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$mode=0">
<xsl:if test="string-length($blank)!=0">
<option value=""></option>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:copy-of select="$lookup/message/lookup"/>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="$mode=1">
<xsl:value-of select="$lookup/message/lookup/option[@value=$value]"/>
</xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>

Source XML:

XML :
<message>
<lookup>
<option value="1">abc</option>
<option value="2">abc1</option>
<option value="3">abc2</option>
</lookup>
</message>


Hope this will enable you to investigate further.

The most obvious thing wrong is the reference to "/Message" when the element is named "message".
