Hello stavros and all
Stavros - I am continuing with my questions regarding your example.
Currently, the title of each page is hard coded in the layout.xhtml
file. (home).
I was looking at a way to use the already present
"
<head>
<title>website title</title>
</head>
"
tag in the content files, and replace the title in the layout.
What I did is to add to the "apply_layout.xsl" file this match :
"
<!-- if page-title is defined in the content page, I am using it to replace
the HTML title-->
<xsl:template match="head/title">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="//osm:page-title">
<title><xsl:value-of
select="//osm:page-title"/></title>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<title><xsl:apply-templates/></title>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
"
In order to - when going through the title - look if there is a
specific title to use - and use it.
However - I am having problems with this match '<xsl:template
match="head/title">' .
This is because of namespaces. In this phase of the transformation, the
relevant XML looks like :
"
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<site><layout>
<head xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";
xmlns:osm="http://osmosis.gr/osml/1.0";
xmlns:jx="http://apache.org/cocoon/templates/jx/1.0";>
<title>Home</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css"/>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html;
charset=utf-8"/>
<LINK HREF="layout-resources/styles/style.css" TYPE="text/css"
REL="stylesheet"/>
</head>
"
Because the 'aggregate' (in the sitemap.xml) removed the root element,
the namespace moved to the next item - the "header" item - and the template
match for "head/title" doesnât match. I am not an Xpath expert - But I think
this is a default namespace problem.
Do you know what Xpath expression I need to use here ? Or maybe this is
the wrong way ?
Thanks !!
Elad
