I am using xslt to search an xml file of resonses to a survey. I want to
display the search predicates at the top of the results of the search.
How do I get at the text of the search to show what the argument was
that produced the result which I am displaying?
I put the search into a variable at the top of the xslt file: <xsl:variable name="bool" select="/responses/response[section/number_sewn > 3]"/> And then use it <xsl:apply-templates select="$bool"> I also want to display the search argument on the output, so I know what it was that this output is searching for. If I use <xsl:value-of select="$bool"/> I just get the text value of the first element of the selected set. And if I first define the search argument as a string with select="'/responses/...... '" (double-quoting to make it a string, not a node set), I can display that easily enough, but I cannot find a way to make that variable then select a node set. Seems so simple, and it is so simple that I cannot find it in the archives. Sorry for such a trivial question. Many thanks. David Riggs Kyoto
