Hi Npselval,
Is it impossible for you to use the exslt.org extensions (they are part
of xalan you should just declare the namespace).
They contain an implementation of the distinct function. Example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0"
xmlns:set="http://exslt.org/sets";>
<xsl:variable name="uniquevalues"
select="set:distinct(/validation/report/script/case/@name)"
/>
...
Best regards

Hi Experts,
I have to get the list of the distinct attribute values across
different node level. To help you understand my requirement, i am herewith
listed with a sample XML file
My XML file looks like this
<validation>
<report>
<script city="NY">
<case name="ramesh" status="BE"/>
<case name="rajesh" status="B.Com" />
</script>
<script city="AL">
<case name="ramesh" status="Law" />
</script>
</report>
</validation>
Now i have to get only the values as ramesh and rajesh and i should not get
ramesh two times. As i use only XPATH 1.0 and XSLT 1.0 i cannot use
distinct-values function. I earlier tried using to fetch distinct values to
a variable using the below script in xslt and it is not working.
<xsl:variable name="uniquevalues"
select="/validation/report/script/case[not(@name=predicate-sibling::validation/report/script/case/@name)]/@name"
/>
The above code snippet is not working. Kindly let me know what has to be
done to get my expected output.
thanks in advance,
npselvan
