Hi!
I have a question about XSLT (and xt), regarding dynamic state information.
I have XML containment hierarchy of "instances" (specified by a DTD), like this:
<instance name = "foo">
...
<instance name = "fie">
...
</instance>
</instance>
I'm using xt to transform this into HTML (and SVG later),
and I would like to calculate the "full distinguished name" (fdn) for each instance,
for example: the instance fie's fdn is "foo/fie". Compare with LDAP distinguished names.
Is it possible to to thid kind of stateful processing using XSLT/xt?
I have a feeling that it's not possible?
The algorithm could be:
Set a variable "fdn" by taking the "fdn" of the parent and add the name of the current instance.
I have tried with xsl:param and xsl:variable and so on, but it doesn't work.
Any ideas?
