Just an XSLT Question about "endnotes"

Hi,

sorry for posting here, but i new here are some people very familiar with XSLT and i have no experience with other lists and don't know any XSLT-list. Hope its ok!?

OK, my problem is the following. I have this text with several custom tags that i must tranform:

Part of my text.xml:

-----------------------------

Mittelalterlicher Bibliothekskatalog (MBK III/3, S. xxx-xxx)

M

[M 1] Item ein predigpuch; das helt in im <MBK KatID="1">die außlegung der<endnote>der vor acht selikeyt verbessert aus die. </endnote> acht selikeyt</MBK> und <MBK KatID="2">XV grad rechter gedult</MBK> und <MBK KatID="3">XV czaichen rechter diemutikeyt</MBK> und <MBK KatID="4">die außlegung des engelischen gruß</MBK>, und <MBK KatID="5">wie darzu kum, das der mensch lang nicht muͤg an todsuͤnd sein</MBK>, und <MBK KatID="6">von dem gaistlichen krieg</MBK> und <MBK KatID="7">von dem gaistlichen<endnote> nach gaistlichen vor paumen ist gestrichen: krieg. </endnote> paumen</MBK> und <MBK KatID="8">von junckfrawlich rainikait</MBK> und <MBK KatID="9">von dem leiden unsers herren</MBK>, und <MBK KatID="10">wie ein mensch sein creuͤcz auf sich nemen sol</MBK> und <MBK KatID="11">von IIII vellen<endnote> vellen] viellen Hs. </endnote></MBK> und <MBK KatID="12">ein predig 'Justum deducit'</MBK>, und <MBK KatID="13">warumb unser herr sein V mynneczaichen behalten hat</MBK>, und <MBK KatID="14">von peten</MBK> etc., <MBK KatID="15">sant Paulus epistel 'Legt an euch einen newen menschen'</MBK>; von <MBK KatID="16">den VII todsuͤnden</MBK> und <MBK KatID="17">'Ave Maria'</MBK>.

Das vor geschriben puch ist uns worden von der junckfrawen Anna Grasserin und von der junckfrawen Elspet Sailerin.

What i need to do is, to extract those <endnote>-tags, which stand for "footnotes" replace them with a text-anker and a link, give them an ID and display all endnotes at the end of the page. The best example how this should look like is i give you an URL to see this live i think:

http://iasl.uni-muenchen.de/rezensio/liste/Hausmann9783205775041_2603.html

Here you find an example text, with links to the footmarks at the end of the page, and there the footmark-texts and also a "back"-link to the main-text. The Problem is, i must work with this textes while they are very hugh and those tags are already there. I heard about that some textprogramms work with such <endnotes>-tags so it seems to be a often used way, but i have no idea, how i can achiev that with XSL, while this seems to be a very tricky one :-((

Hope that somebody here could help me! Thanks a lot!

Regards, Marcus

You can use the XSL List at Mulberrytech.

I'm not sure to understand what exactly your problem is,
but if I do, the keepoints here are that generate-id()
always generates the same ID when provided the same node (so
you can reliably generate anchors) and using different modes
to process twice the same node with different behaviour.
For the number generation, uses xsl:number:

<xsl:template match="endnote">
<a href="#{ generate-id(.) }">

<xsl:number/>
</a>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="endnote" mode="footer">
<a name="{ generate-id(.) }">

<xsl:number/>
</a>

<xsl:apply-templates/>

</xsl:template>

I think that should give you the idea.

Re: Just an XSLT Question about "endnotes"

Hi,
that helped somehow, but i don't know if the <xsl:number> functions right,
while i'm always getting a "1" as link, and not a counting number :-( I
searched a bit, but all i found is the using of <xsl:number> for creating a
content-structer :-(
But what i need is an increasing number "inside" my text for each <endnote>.
and not on one place, so think i can't use the for-each-statement here, or
can i?
I think the problem is, that the counter doesn't know what to count, while
it sees everytime only 1 <endnote>-tag, right?
But i can't refer inside my endnote-template to the parent-node, while than
i get the error message, that only childs or attributes are allowed...

Any hints on that?
The rest works just as i needed it, so the textankers and the endnotes at
the end of the page function very well, thanks for that!

Marcus

Re: Just an XSLT Question about "endnotes"

In reply to this post by Florent Georges

Hi,
i could make it work at last. The last forum i found gave indirectly the
answer.
<xsl:number level="any" count="endnote" from="Inhalt" format="1"/>

@level=any was the missing factor, not it counts every "endnote" in the
subtree of "Inhalt", no matter where the endnote stands. Nice function :-)

Thanks and regards, Marcus
