RE: [xsl] default attribute values?

[Americo Albuquerque <aalbuquerque at viseu dot ipiaget dot pt>]

you could use xsl:if's
<input type='text' name='n' value='x'>
<xsl:if test="@size"><xsl:attribute name="size"><xsl:value-of
select="@size"/></xsl:attribute></xsl:if>
<xsl:if test="@maxlength"><xsl:attribute name="maxlength"><xsl:value-of
select="@maxlength"/></xsl:attribute></xsl:if>
</input>

Subject: [xsl] default attribute values?


Is there a way to ignore an attribute or give it a default value if one
wasn't set?

For example I have
<text name='n' value'x'/>
and want to output
<input type='text' name='n' value='x'/>
but also want to allow for cases where size and/or maxlength attributes are
passed through such as
<input type='text' name='n' value='x' size='10' maxlength='20'/>
.

Right now I'm producing
<input type='text' name='n' value='x' size='' maxlength=''/>
which obviously is not producing very nice output.

Thanks.


Don't dream it. Be it.
