Hi Alex, On one of the sites here in Hull I have a file for each member of staff with the following dtd to define it: <!ELEMENT page (rightbox*,bodytext,leftbox?)> <!ELEMENT rightbox (html)> <!ELEMENT bodytext (photo,qualifications,researchinterests,researchcategories,biography,modulestaught,memberships,publications)> <!ELEMENT photo (html)> <!ELEMENT qualifications (html)> <!ELEMENT researchinterests (html)> <!ELEMENT researchcategories (html)> <!ELEMENT biography (html)> <!ELEMENT modulestaught (html)> <!ELEMENT memberships (html)> <!ELEMENT publications (html)> <!ELEMENT leftbox (html)> <!ATTLIST rightbox title CDATA #REQUIRED> <!ATTLIST leftbox title CDATA #REQUIRED> <!ATTLIST bodytext title CDATA #REQUIRED> <!ATTLIST bodytext firstname CDATA #REQUIRED> <!ATTLIST bodytext lastname CDATA #REQUIRED> <!ATTLIST bodytext academictitle CDATA #REQUIRED> <!ATTLIST bodytext honorarytitle CDATA #REQUIRED> <!ATTLIST bodytext extention CDATA #REQUIRED> <!ATTLIST bodytext roomnumber CDATA #REQUIRED> <!ATTLIST bodytext email CDATA #REQUIRED> <!ATTLIST page navigationtitle CDATA #REQUIRED> I want to include the firstname, lastname and email for each member of staff on an index page. At the moment I only seem to be able to include everything on a staff page The code I have is as follows: <xsl:template name="bodytext"> <xsl:for-each select="/cms:wrapper/cms:include[@pattern='/people/staff/*.xml']"> <xsl:apply-templates /> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:template> I though I would be able to use: <xsl:apply-templates select="/cms:wrapper/cms:source/page/bodytext/@firstname" /> but that isn't working. Can you see what I'm doing wrong at all?

Hi Carl, What about something like this: <xsl:apply-templates select="/cms:wrapper/cms:include/page/bodytext" /> <xsl:template match="bodytext"> <xsl:value-of select="@firstname"/> <xsl:value-of select="@lastname"/> <xsl:value-of select="@email"/> </xsl:template> You'll of course need to make sure that your include has the attribute data="yes".

Thanks Alex, Thats working for me now. I've turned the email address into a link easy enough, but I want to turn the persons name into a link to their page. I have only just started looking at it now, do you have any pointers?

Hi Carl, Something like <xsl:variable name="include" select="ancestor::cms:include"/> <a href="{$rel-project-base}{$include/@directory}{$include/ @basename}.html"> <xsl:value-of select="@firstname"/> <xsl:value-of select="@lastname"/> </a> By the way, have you considered using VCard for this information? Then you could set it up to populate from LDAP, and get addressbook integration as well. We'll often use VCard for basic contact info, then use either additional attributes in the XML for more specific info like office hours, degrees, etc., or put it in the VCard note so it will show up in your addressbook as well.

Hi Alex, This has worked very well, I am using it for news and events too. I am generating a news index but also want to add the latest 5 news items on the Homepage. I was thinking that I could use something like: <xsl:variable name="include" select="ancestor::cms:include[position() < 6]"/> But I don't seem to be able to get it to work. Am I going about it the right way?

Hi Carl, To generate a "top 5" list, I recommend creating a specific navigation file to represent the list. You could set the root nav- template to "/news/index.xml" and a child template to "/news/*.xml", or whatever the appropriate pattern is; then set the root template to sort children by date descending, and set the maxChildren attribute to 5. I also have a velocity template that will render such a navigation file to RSS if you're interested.

Hi Alex, I didn't really want to create a specific navigation file for news and events so I've have set the news and events to order by date and done it as follows: <xsl:template match="newsbodytext"> <xsl:variable name="emailadd" select="@email"/> <xsl:variable name="pos" select="position()"/> <xsl:variable name="include" select="ancestor::cms:include"/> <xsl:if test="$pos < '5'"> <a href="{$rel-project-base}{$include/@directory}{$include/@basename}.html"> <xsl:value-of select="@title"/> </a> <br/> <xsl:value-of select="summary"/> </xsl:if> </xsl:template> Is that an 'okay' way of doing it? Is the velocity template the one used for the ja-sig site? I have downloaded that and did use the RSS generation on a test site here. It works really well. However, at the moment since I am only live with 1.4 I haven't been able to use it for anything live.

This might actually be flawed. It seems the elements are numbers in alphabetical order not as they are added so the numbers actually change. So what I thought would be the latest 5 are simply the first 5 in alphabetical order. Do you have any ideas how to solve that?

Hi Carl, You can use an XSL sort at the point you apply-templates for "newsbodytext" to sort based on date. Part of the advantage of using a navigation file for this is overall better performance, especially if you get to the point where you're trying to pick the 5 most recent out of hundreds.

Hi Alex, I see... I think I'll go for the RSS rendered news with it's own navigation file when I properly switch to version 2.0. I intend this to be after the summer. News items on our main public site could well get into the hundreds. For now, how would I actually get to the filedate. I can sort by various parts of the XML file <xsl:sort select="@title"> but I need to sort by the date the file was created/edited. Cheers Carl Alex Vigdor wrote: > Hi Carl, > You can use an XSL sort at the point you apply-templates for > "newsbodytext" to sort based on date.

HI Carl, The creation date is available via dublin core metadata, i.e. /cms:wrapper/cms:include/rdf:RDF/cfs:File/dc:date In the current release this is only a date stamp, so the sorting isn't reliable between items created on the same day. The CVS code is already updated so this is a date-time stamp. It's in ISO 8601 format ("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ssZ") which means it can be sorted lexicographically without parsing the date.

Thanks Alex, Thats working great now. I'm actually building the site in version 2.0, just because I find it much easier to develop in. I'll dump it all itnto1.4 before going live. The wrong way round to do things I know, but I can't roll out 2.0 to everyone at the moment. I'm not too bothered about the same day sorting in version 1.4. It will be okay.
