Question

I am using xslt2.0 for convert one xml format to another xml format. This is my sample xml document.

<w:document>
    <w:body>
             <w:p>Para1</w:p> 
             <w:p>Para2</w:p> 
             <w:p>Para3</w:p> 
             <w:p>Para4</w:p> 
    </w:body>
</w:document>

Initially this is my xml format.so, i handled each and every <w:p> elements through my function in xslt given below…

 <xsl:template match="document">
      <Document>
    <xsl:sequence select="mf:group(body/p, 1,count(//w:body//w:p)-1)"/>
      </Document>    
</xsl:template>

So,In that xslt function, i have coded how to reformat those elements.It’s working fine…

But now,Xml format is restructured like given below…

<w:document>
        <w:body>
                 <w:tbl><!--some text with children elements--></w:tbl>
                 <w:tbl><!--some text with children elements--></w:tbl>
                 <w:p>Para1</w:p> 
                 <w:p>Para2</w:p> 
                 <w:p>Para3</w:p> 
                 <w:p>Para4</w:p> 
        </w:body>
 </w:document>

So, As of now i have to handle both and elements in a same sequence…..

What i want to do is,

If i encounter elemtents then i have to call my template given below…

<xsl:template match="document">
     <Document>
        <xsl:for-each select="w:tbl">
          <xsl:apply-templates select="w:tbl">
              </xsl:apply-templates>
      </xsl:for-each>
        <xsl:sequence select="mf:group(body/p, 1,count(//w:body//w:p)-1)"/>
     </Document>    
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="w:tbl">
<!--xslt code here -->
</xsl:template>

But the for-each statement is not executed when I trying transformation…

So, Please guide me to get out of this issue…

Answer 1

I think instead of

<xsl:template match="document">
     <Document>
        <xsl:for-each select="w:tbl">
          <xsl:apply-templates select="w:tbl">
              </xsl:apply-templates>
      </xsl:for-each>
        <xsl:sequence select="mf:group(body/p, 1,count(//w:body//w:p)-1)"/>
     </Document>    
</xsl:template>

you simply want

<xsl:template match="document">
     <Document>
        <xsl:apply-templates select="w:body/w:tbl"/>
        <xsl:sequence select="mf:group(body/p, 1,count(//w:body//w:p)-1)"/>
     </Document>    
</xsl:template>

If that does not do what you want then please show the result you want.
