Re: Ancestors and Imported docs


Eric:

Change

>   <xsl:if test="top_bar//.">

to <xsl:if test="ancestor::top-bar">

and it'll work. Except you have another problem. To set the variable, you 
need something like

<xsl:variable name="color">
   <xsl:choose>
      <xsl:when test="ancestor::top-bar">ffffff</xsl:when>
      <xsl:when test="ancestor::bottom-bar">000000</xsl:when>
      <xsl:otherwise><!-- error condition --></xsl:otherwise>
   </xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>

since otherwise the variable won't be in scope outside the conditional(s).

Make sense? Cheers,
Wendell
