XSL testing empty strings with <xsl:if> and sorting
- by AdRock
I am having trouble with a template that has to check 3 different nodes and if they are not empty, print the data
I am using for each node then doing the output but it is not printing anything. It is like the test returns zero.
I have selected the parent node of each node i want to check the length on as the template match but it still doesn't work.
Another thing, how do i sort the list using . I tried using this but i get an error about loading the stylesheet. If i take out the sort it works
<xsl:template match="folktask/member">
<xsl:if test="user/account/userlevel='3'">
<xsl:sort select="festival/event/datefrom"/>
<div class="userdiv">
<xsl:apply-templates select="user"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="festival"/>
</div>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="festival">
<xsl:apply-templates select="contact"/>
</xsl:template>
This should hopefully finish all my stylesheets.
This is the template I am calling
<xsl:template match="contact">
<xsl:if test="string-length(contelephone)!=0">
<div class="small bold">TELEPHONE:</div>
<div class="large">
<xsl:value-of select="contelephone/." />
</div>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test="string-length(conmobile)!=0">
<div class="small bold">MOBILE:</div>
<div class="large">
<xsl:value-of select="conmobile/." />
</div>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test="string-length(fax)!=0">
<div class="small bold">FAX:</div>
<div class="large">
<xsl:value-of select="fax/." />
</div>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
and a section of my xml. If you need me to edit my post so you can see the full code i will but the rest works fine.
