I will get a value from the XML file, e.g.
<WORD>Men</WORD>
Then, I want to create an array in XSLT 1.0, e.g.
<array>
<Item>Men</Item>
<Item>Women</Item>
</array>
If the value from the XML file matches one of the items in the array, it will return true. Can anyone tell me how can I do it?? Thank you!
It seems you are looking for extension function of exsl:node-set. Have a look:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:exsl="http://exslt.org/common" extension-element-prefixes="exsl">
<xsl:param name="InputArray">
<array>
<Item>Men</Item>
<Item>Women</Item>
</array>
</xsl:param>
<xsl:param name="InputItem">
<WORD>Men</WORD>
</xsl:param>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="exsl:node-set($InputArray)//Item[text()=exsl:node-set($InputItem)//text()]">
<xsl:text>Yes</xsl:text>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:text>No</xsl:text>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
<xsl:stylesheet
version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:exsl="http://exslt.org/common"
xmlns:internal="http://tempuri.org/config"
exclude-result-prefixes="internal"
extension-element-prefixes="exsl"
>
<internal:config>
<array>
<Item>Men</Item>
<Item>Women</Item>
</array>
</internal:config>
<xsl:variable name="config" select="document('')/*/internal:config" />
<xsl:template match="WORD">
<xsl:if test="$config/array/Item[. = current()]">
<xsl:value-of select="concat('The current value ', ., ' was found.')" />
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Note:
exclude-result-prefixes to prevent leaking the temporary namespace into the result documentdocument('') to access the contents stylesheet from within itself.The condition $doc//WORD = $table//item is true when you want it to be, and false when you want it to be, if $doc and $table are bound appropriately.
