On working a stylesheet that processes a multimedia-course storyboard and
returns text, CRLF-delimited, sorted, lowercase, no-duplicates filenames I
have several questions:
1. is there anything I should do to improve it (make it more efficient)?
2. is it possible to use the param "ele" in key, apply-templates and
template? This would make it possible for a single stylesheet to look for
file_audio, file_video or file_graphic tags.
3. Or perhaps I should actually ask, is there a way to rework my approach
so I can parameterize it?
Stylesheet:
<xsl:output method="text" encoding="ISO-8859-1" indent="no"/>
<xsl:param name="ele">file_audio</xsl:param>
<xsl:variable name="lc" select="'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'"/>
<xsl:variable name="uc" select="'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'"/>
<xsl:key name="fn" match="file_audio" use="@fileref"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:apply-templates select="//file_audio">
<xsl:sort select="@fileref"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="file_audio[generate-id() = generate-id(key('fn',
@fileref)[1])]">
<xsl:value-of select="translate(@fileref, $uc, $lc)"/>
<xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes">
</xsl:text>
</xsl:template>
Excerpts of sample input:
<frame id="01" type="a" parms="a">
<txt_scr lang="ENG"/>
<txt_aud>Click on a button in front of the module you wish to begin
and...</txt_aud>
<file_audio fileref="coursemenu.mp3"/>
</frame>

<txt_avi>{Zelda} Hi, welcome to the Intercom Plus Training! I am Zelda

<file_avi start_frame="1" end_frame="359" fileref="__A_.0010.001.avi" />
