Re: RE: how I can select the largest attribute value


That will not serve the purpose...
u have to select the first among the sorted..
so the following code would help...

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="/Root/element">
<xsl:sort order="descending" select="@length" data-type="number"/>
<xsl:if test="position()=1">
<xsl:value-of select="@length"/>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

hope this help
Vasu

Maybe you can do something like this?

<xsl:for-each select="Root/element[1]">
	<xsl:sort select="@length" data-type="number" order="descending"/>
		<xsl:value-of select="@length"/>
</xsl:for-each>

| Hi List,
|
| Can someone please tell me how I can select the largest
| attribute value from the following xml file, without doing
|
| <xsl:value-of select="Root/element[@length="14"]/@length" />.
|
| (I don't want to use a hard coded value in the predicate). Is
| there an Xpath that i can use. Xml file: <Root>
|      <element  length="3" />
|      <element  length="14" />
|      <element  length="1" />
|      <element  length="6" />
|      .....
| </Root>
|
| I'm using MSXML3.
|
| Thanks in Advance
|
