Hello,
I am using MS's XML/XSL engine, and I need to test
the existence of children elements of a element being
matched in a template, as follows:
the xml is something like:
<SECTION>
<ELEMENT>1</ELEMENT>
<ELEMENT>2</ELEMENT>
<ELEMENT>3</ELEMENT>
<ELEMENT>4</ELEMENT>
...
</SECTION>
The <ELEMENT>'s are optional.
As to the xml:
...
<xsl:template match="SECTION">
<xsl:if test="there are element's in this section">
...
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
I suppose this test could also be made in the apply templates
line:
<xsl:apply-templates order-by="@ORD" data-type="number"
select="SECTION[where children ELEMENTs count> 0]" />
Can anyone give me hint?
Thanks in advance,
j
