I'm very new to XSL and learning by doing, so thanks in advance for
responding. I've got some xml which has come out of a filemaker
database where you can have a layoutobject that contains either field
objects or other layoutobjects in a recursive style list :
<FMPReport link="Summary.xml" type="Report" creationDate="25/09/2005" creationTime="9:28:42 PM"> <File name="DDR Sample.fp7" path="/Volumes/BIGHD/Projects/DDR"> <LayoutCatalog> <Layout id="2" name="Layout #2" includeInMenu="True"> <Object type="GroupButton" flags="0" portal="-1" rotation="0"> <GroupButtonObj numOfObjs="14"> <Object type="GroupButton" flags="0" portal="-1" rotation="0"> <GroupButtonObj numOfObjs="6"> <Object type="Field" flags="0" portal="-1" rotation="0"> </Object> </GroupButtonObj> </Object> </GroupButtonObj> </Object> <Object type="GroupButton" flags="0" portal="-1" rotation="0"> <GroupButtonObj numOfObjs="6"> <Object type="Field" flags="0" portal="-1" rotation="0"> </Object> </GroupButtonObj> </Object> <Object type="Field" flags="0" portal="-1" rotation="0"> </Object> </Layout> </LayoutCatalog> </File> </FMPReport> I'm trying to run a for-each loop on all of the field objects that does : <xsl:value-of select="./@type"/> and I can do this fine for any field object at the lowest point in the tree by referring to it explicity: /FMPReport/File/LayoutCatalog/Layout/Object[@type='Field'] which means I can also then reference the parent "Layout" node using : <xsl:value-of select="../../@id"/> the problem I have is how do I reference every possible Object [@type='Field'] in the tree and still be able to reference the parent Layout node? Thanks, Nick
