Subject: [xsl] Problem with xsl:choose
Hi there,
I am having a problem with xsl:choose.
I have an xml file in the following format
<main>
.
.
.
<timer> On </timer> (this could be either "On" of "Off" or "Manual")
.
.
.
</main>
Now, I wrote an xsl file that would check the value of timer, and print out
an appropriate text.
My xml file was
.
.
.
<!-- main/timer -->
<xsl:template match = "main/timer">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test=" main/timer = 'On'">
<xsl:text>Timer is On</xsl:text>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="main/timer = 'Off'">
<xsl:text>Timer is Off</xsl:text>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:text>Timer is Manual</xsl:text>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
Now the problem is, when the parser checks the XML file, it must logically
go into the xsl:when defined for the On status.But it always skips all the
xsl:when's and moves into the xsl:otherwise block, and hence whatever is
defined in the otherwise only gets outputted. No errors are outputted.
Please help. I am stuck with this for the past 4 hours. Thanks and regards,
Lakshmi Narayanan
