RE: xsl:for-each and xsl:apply-templates


Gerry,

Try it this way:

<xsl:template match="list">
	  <ul>
	    <xsl:apply-templates/>
	  </ul>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="link">
	  <li>
	    <xsl:apply-templates/>
	  </li>
</xsl:template>

This is much more stragihtforward and readable.

	I need to wrap each child element.  Michael pointed out that the
context switches to the child nodes in the loop, so I understand that they
are not being ignored.  Here is a more concrete example:

	xml source is:
	<list>
	  <link .../>
	  <link .../>
	  <link .../>
	</list>

	xsl template is:
	<xsl:template match="list">
	  <ul>
	  <xsl:for-each select="link">
	    <li>...I would like to invoke the link template here...does
xsl:call-template work?...</li>
	  </xsl:for-each>
	  </ul>
	</xsl:template>

	Thanks to all for the replies, Gerry

		  <xsl:when test="name(parent::node()) = 'parent1'">

		I think the poster said child processing was the same, but
if not better
		to do
		  <xsl:when test="parent::parent1">

		than the above as a) it's quicker (to write and to execute)
and b) it
		works correctly in the presence of namespaces, which
expressions
		involving name() tend not to do.
