XML and XSL

**notepad_coder** · Apr 8, 2002, 02:14

I am using XSL for an XML document and it isnt working. my XSL document:

PHP Code:


xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl">

  <xsl:template match="/">

    <html>

      <head>

          <script language="JavaScript"><xsl:comment><![CDATA[

          function sort(key) {

              var s = document.XSLDocument.selectNodes("*/xsl:template[@match='products']//xsl:apply-templats/@order-by");

              for (var a = s.nextNode(); a != null; a = s.nextNode()) {

                  a.value = key;

              }

              var d = document.XMLDocument.selectNodes("test_product_info/products");

              products.innerHTML = d.transformNode(document.XMLDocument);

          }

        ]]></xsl:comment></script>

      </head>

      <body>

        <table border="0" bgcolor="#aaaaaa">

          <tr>

            <td colspan="2">

              <div id="products">

                <xsl:apply-templates select="product_info/products"/>

              </div>

            </td>

          </tr>

          <tr>

            <td align="center">

              <a href="javascript:sort('price_per_unit')">Sort by price</a>

            </td>

            <td>

              <a href="javascript:sort('name')">Sort by name</a>

            </td>

          </tr>

        </table>

        <p/>

      </body>

    </html>

  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template match="products">

    <table cellspacing="0" border="0" bgcolor="#aaaaaa">

      <xsl:apply-templates select="item" order-by="name"/>

    </table>

  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template match="item">

    <tr>

      <td><b><xsl:value-of select="name"/></b></td>

      <td>..........</td>

      <td valign="bottom"><xsl:value-of select="price_per_unit"/></td>

    </tr>

  </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

and here is my XML document

PHP Code:


<?xml version='1.0'?>

<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="sort.xsl"?>

<product_info xmlns:HTML="http://www.w3.org/Profiles/XHTML-transitional">

  <products>

    <item>

      <name>Product 1</name>

      <price_per_unit currency="USD">6.50</price_per_unit>

    </item>

    <item>

      <name>Product 2</name>

      <price_per_unit currency="USD">5.00</price_per_unit>

    </item>

    <item>

      <name>Product 3</name>

      <price_per_unit currency="CD">8.25</price_per_unit>

    </item>

  </products>

</test_product_info>

does anyone know what could be wrong?

It would help to know what's not working. I'm not great at XML/XSL, but I can figure it out quicker if I know what I'm looking for...

One problem I could see is that your element <product_info> is closed with </test_product_info>, but I don't think that's your major problem?

Sorry I forgot to post the error.

A CDATA section was not closed. Error processing resource 'file:///C:/XML/sort.xsl'. Line 5, Position 63

<script language="JavaScript"><xsl:comment><![CDATA[

I also changed <product_info></product_info> and its still not working
