using a single xsl file to display different elements
I have an xml file with the following data:
<BOOKS>
<BOOK>
<TITLE image="./images/govnahDesign.jpg">Bible</TITLE>
<CATEGORY>Book</CATEGORY>
<GENRE>Gospel</GENRE>
<PRICE>0.00</PRICE>

<REVIEW>This makes me want a father like they talking about. He must be a great father. Great magazine.</REVIEW>
</BOOK>
</BOOKS>
I am currently displaying each in separate xsl files. example: this would be xsl file for categry='Book"
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="BOOKS/BOOK">
<xsl:if test="CATEGORY='Book'"><!-- Show category NOVEL only -->
<div class="item">
<xsl:value-of select="TITLE"/>
<img>
<xsl:attribute name="src">
<xsl:value-of select="TITLE//@image"/>
</xsl:attribute>
</img>
Price: <xsl:value-of select="PRICE"/>
<button id="view" onclick="javascript:viewBook()">View</button>
</div>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
My question is, is it possible to have just one xsl file which i can change the value of the category in the if statement when the xsl file opens?
<xsl:if test="CATEGORY='Book'">
I open the xsl file with javascript into a div on the main page.
I have searched for a couple of days now trying to use javascript to pass a value but no avail. Any directions, help and advice would be much appreciated.
Thank You
Addition:
the java script that opens the required xsl file depending on the category name:
var root=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("CATEGORY");
strVal = new Array();
for (i=0;i<root.length;++i) {
var title=(root[i].childNodes[0].nodeValue);
strVal[i]='<li><a href="#" onClick="javascript:Navigate(\''+xslCatFileName+'\')"开发者_JAVA技巧>'+xslCatFileName+'</a></li>';
string = string + strVal[i];
}
document.getElementById("category").innerHTML+=string;
Here is the Navigation() function the above calls:
function Navigate(catName) {
//create an instance of the DOMDocument object.
var xmlDoc=new ActiveXObject ("Msxml2.DOMDocument.6.0");
var xslDoc=new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.6.0");
var i;
xmlDoc.async=false;
xslDoc.async=false;
//stores the category passed
var xslCatName = catName;
xmlDoc.load("./xml/books.xml");
xslDoc.load("./xml/"+xslCatName+".xsl");
//check wether the process of loading is complete and that there are no errors in the XML document.
if (xmlDoc.readyState == 4 && xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode == 0) {
var output=xmlDoc.transformNode(xslDoc); //transforms the xml sheet to xslt
//this clears the div before it loads
var y = document.getElementById('showBOOKS'), child;
while(child=y.firstChild)
y.removeChild(child);
document.getElementById("showBOOKS").innerHTML+=output;
}
//if the XML document contains an error, display an error message.
else {
alert("Failed to load the document. Check wether your XML document is well-formed");
}
}
If the function you are using supports passing parameters to the xsl transform, you can simply define a parameter for that, and call the same xsl using different parameter values:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:param name="CATEGORY" select="Book"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="BOOKS/BOOK">
<xsl:if test="CATEGORY=$CATEGORY"><!-- Show category NOVEL only -->
<div class="item">
<xsl:value-of select="TITLE"/>
<img>
<xsl:attribute name="src">
<xsl:value-of select="TITLE//@image"/>
</xsl:attribute>
</img>
Price: <xsl:value-of select="PRICE"/>
<button id="view" onclick="javascript:viewBook()">View</button>
</div>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
This is the XSLT side. Are you searching for this?
On the javascript side you need to add the parameter before calling the transform, with something like:
xslDoc.addParameter("CATEGORY", "Novel");
I think you are also using the wrong API for your xslDoc
. See this example.
You could include a small xsl file which contains the value:
<xsl:variable name="category" select="'Book'"/>
and in the if statement use it:
<xsl:if test="CATEGORY=$category">
