RE: Show - hide with xslt?

["Bjorn Boxstart" <bboxstart at nl dot alpnet dot com>]

First put the value of generate-id() into a varible.

then do something like the following:

<a><xsl:attribute name="href">javascript:showhide('<xsl:value-of
select="$myVar"/>')</xsl:attribute></a>

also use the varible in:
<div style="display:none"><xsl:attribute name="id"><xsl:value-of
select="$myVar"/></xsl:attribute> ...[you content goes here]... </div>

I hope this helps, but sorry I don't have time to test it myself.

regards, bjorn

This seems an easy way but...

If I use this one:


      <xsl:variable name="my-id" select="generate-id()"/>

      <div style="display:none" id="$my-id">
       <p><xsl:value-of select="$Abstract"/></p>
      </div>

      <a href="javascript:showhide('$my-id');">


It doesn't write or doen't generate the "id value".


Besides, if I use this:

      <div style="display:none">
      <xsl:attribute name="id"><xsl:value-of
select="generate-id()"/></xsl:attribute>
       <p><xsl:value-of select="$Abstract"/></p>
      </div>

It generates the attribute "id" but now how can I send it to the javascript
function?

      <a
href="javascript:showhide('How_Tell_it_I_Want_generated_ID_here???');">



Thank you for your suggestion.

Bye,
Andrea
