Question

I have XML data in a form like:

<Parent>
    <Child>Value1</Child>
    <Child>Value2</Child>
    <Child>Value3</Child>
    .
    .
    .
</Parent>

I have to set the HTML title attribute of the enclosing tag to the concatenated values, something like:

<xsl:attribute name="title">Value1,Value2,Value3,.,.,.</xsl:attribute>

I checked questions asked previously on SO, but most of the solutions were multiline, (and being new to XSL) I think that it i can’t include the multiline code within my <xsl:attribute></xsl:attribute> tags. How to go about this thing?

Answer 1

<xsl:template match="Parent">
  <xsl:attribute name="title">
   <xsl:for-each select="Child">
     <xsl:if test="position() != 1">, </xsl:if>
     <xsl:value-of select="."/>
   </xsl:for-each>
  </xsl:attribute>
</xsl:template>
