Re: work around for ?

Try this:   <xsl:for-each select="parent/child[position() mod 2 = 0]"> <tr> <td><xsl:value-of select="preceding-sibling::child/name"/></td> <td><xsl:value-of select="name"/></td> </tr> </xsl:for-each>   and as you can see you can make this work for any number of columns:    <xsl:for-each select="parent/child[position() mod 4 = 0]"> <tr> <td><xsl:value-of select="preceding-sibling::child[3]/name"/></td> <td><xsl:value-of select="preceding-sibling::child[2]/name"/></td> <td><xsl:value-of select="preceding-sibling::child[1]/name"/></td> <td><xsl:value-of select="name"/></td> </tr> </xsl:for-each>   Just be aware that the preceding-sibling:: axis is a reverse axis so counting is reverse document order.   Perry ----- Original Message ----- From: Robert McKinnon To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 27, 2001 8:22 PM Subject: work around for <xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes">? Hello, I am trying to dynamically build table rows from an xml file.  The solution that I came across indicated that I would need to use <xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes">.  When I tried to apply this solution I discovered that Cocoon does not support disable-output-escaping.  What would be an alternative solution?  The following are example snippets: [XML] <parent> <child> <name>child1</name> </child> <child> <name>child2</name> </child> <child> <name>child3</name> </child> <child> <name>child4</name> </child> <child> <name>child5</name> </child> <child> <name>child6</name> </child> </parent> [OUTPUT DESIRED] <tr> <td>child1</td> <td>child2</td> </tr> <tr> <td>child3</td> <td>child4</td> </tr> <tr> <td>child5</td> <td>child6</td> </tr> [RECOMMENDED XSL SOLUTION NOT SUPPORTED BY COCOON] <tr> <xsl:for-each select="parent/child"> <td><xsl:value-of select="name"/></td> <xsl:if test="position() mod 2 = 0"> <xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes"> <![CDATA[</tr><tr>]]> </xsl:text> </xsl:if> </xsl:for-each> </tr> --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. <http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faqs.html> To unsubscribe, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
