Hi Luke,



You could do that, but you can't use <xsl:apply templates 
select="tblMIMCompanies"/>

because the for-each loop already puts you in the context of the 
tblMIMCompanies nodes.

I think it should work if you use <xsl:apply templates select="."/>



Or alternatively use apply-templates instead of for-each and use a mode:



<xsl:template match="tblMIM">
   <xsl:apply-templates select="tblMIMCompanies"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="tblMIMCompanies">

   <xsl:if test="$searchby=0 and 
tblMIMSubSectors[@subsectorID=$subsector]">

       <xsl:apply-templates select="." mode="output"/>

   </xsl:if>

   <xsl:if test="$searchby=1 and tblMIMSubSectors[@sectorID=$sector]">

       <xsl:apply-templates select="." mode="output"/>

   </xsl:if>

</xsl:template>



<xsl:template match="tblMIMCompanies" mode="output">
   <xsl:value-of select="@name"/>
   ...
</xsl:template>

Cheers,
Anton

Hello guys,



thanks a lot for the great help you gave me with my previous problem,
hopefully this will be as simple to solve.
I have

<xsl:template match="tblMIM">
   <xsl:for-each select="tblMIMCompanies">
       <xsl:choose>
           <xsl:when test="$searchby=0">
               <xsl:if test="tblMIMSubSectors[@subsectorID=$subsector]">
                   <xsl:value-of select="@name"/>
                   ...
               </xsl:if>
           </xsl:when>
           <xsl:when test="$searchby=1">
               <xsl:if test="tblMIMSubSectors[@sectorID=$sector]">
                   <xsl:value-of select="@name"/>
                   ...
               </xsl:if>
           </xsl:when>
       </xsl:choose>
   </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

i would like to change it to something like the code below, which doesn't
output anything. This way i don't need to repeat the inner most code since
its the same for each. any ideas?

<xsl:template match="tblMIM">
   <xsl:for-each select="tblMIMCompanies">
       <xsl:choose>
           <xsl:when test="$searchby=0">
               <xsl:if test="tblMIMSubSectors[@subsectorID=$subsector]">
                   <xsl:apply templates select="tblMIMCompanies"/>
               </xsl:if>
           </xsl:when>
           <xsl:when test="$searchby=1">
               <xsl:if test="tblMIMSubSectors[@sectorID=$sector]">
                   <xsl:apply templates select="tblMIMCompanies"/>
               </xsl:if>
           </xsl:when>
       </xsl:choose>
   </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="tblMIMCompanies">
   <xsl:value-of select="@name"/>
   ...
</xsl:template>

the xml looks like this



<tblMIM>
   <tblMIMCompanies name="A Ltd" ...>
       <tblMIMSubSectors subsectorID="55" sectorID="3"/>
   </tblMIMCompanies>
   <tblMIMCompanies name="Z Ltd" ...>
       <tblMIMSubSectors subsectorID="56" sectorID="3"/>
   </tblMIMCompanies>
</tblMim>
