Re: Help on XSLT template logic! (Prasanna Kumar)

[Geert J. <Gee...@Da...>]

Hi there,

How about something like:

<xsl:stylesheet ...>

<xsl:template match="COLUMNHEADER">
  <table>
    <tr>
      <xsl:apply-templates select="TEXTELEMENT" />
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <xsl:apply-templates select="*/TEXTELEMENT" />
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <xsl:apply-templates select="*/*/TEXTELEMENT" />
    </tr>
  </table>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="TEXTELEMENT">
      <td><xsl:value-of select="@DISPLAYNAME" /></td>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
