Hi,
I'm creating XSLT files and combining them with the XML Documents to produce flat files using XT engine. There are elements with the same attributes. So when I'm writing the stylesheet, I have to repeat the code for the two elements. The sample XML DTD and XSLT stylesheet is as follows. <!-- Valid values in XML Document and their values during translation are as follows Chicago - C SanFrancisco - S NewYork - N Detroit - D <!ENTITY % ENT_CITY "CITY_VALUE (Chicago|SanFrancisco|NewYork|Detroit) #IMPLIED"> <!ELEMENT CITY EMPTY> <!ATTLIST CITY %ENT_CITY;> <!ELEMENT METROS EMPTY> <!ATTLIST METROS %ENT_CITY;> So in the stylesheet, I'll have to repeat the code for both CITY and METROS, like <!--City--> <xsl:param-variable name="varcity" expr = "CITY"/> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$varcity='Chicago'">
<xsl:value-of select="sample:padLeftjWithSpaces('C', '1')"/>
</xsl:when> <xsl:when test="$varcity='SanFrancisco'">
<xsl:value-of select="sample:padLeftjWithSpaces('S', '1')"/>
</xsl:when> <xsl:when test="$varcity='NewYork'">
<xsl:value-of select="sample:padLeftjWithSpaces('N', '1')"/></xsl:when> <xsl:when test="$varcity='Detroit'">
<xsl:value-of select="sample:padLeftjWithSpaces('D', '1')"/>
</xsl:when></xsl:choose> Do I have to repeat the code for METROS element also or is there a way to simplify the code in XSLT. Thanks in advance. CU, Malliks
