Help me find out what I'm doing wrong

[azdine]

Hi guys,

I'm struggling with a basic stuff - A call to a javascript function within a XSLT transformation. Could you please help to find out what I'm doing wrong.
Here is the XML input text

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<message channel-id="987b3452-5e34-4401-8106-ef81939f93e2">
<task-started task-type="task">
<agent-parameter multi-valued="false"><name>EPNIPRangeEndINT</name><value>168428543</value></agent-parameter><agent-parameter multi-valued="false"><name>EPNIPRangeStartINT</name><value>168428288</value></agent-parameter><agent-parameter multi-valued="false"><name>EPNRecordIPName</name><value>epn-2</value></agent-parameter><agent-parameter multi-valued="false"><name>IPPoolName</name><value>AzdinePool-1</value></agent-parameter><agent-parameter multi-valued="false"><name>NetworkType</name><value>AzdinePool-1</value></agent-parameter></task-started>
</message>

The XSLT is here

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:lxslt="http://xml.apache.org/xslt"
xmlns:result="http://www.example.com/results" extension-element-prefixes="result">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>

<lxslt:component prefix="result" functions="num2dot">
    <lxslt:script lang="javascript">
    function num2dot(num) {
        var d = num%256;
        for (var i = 3; i > 0; i--) {
        num = Math.floor(num/256);
        d = num%256 + '.' + d;}
    return d;
    }    
</lxslt:script>
</lxslt:component>

You have two syntax errors.

----------------------
Change

<VALUE><xsl:value-of select="$RecordName" /><xsl:text>.</xsl:text><xsl:value-of select="$currentID" />

to:

<VALUE><xsl:value-of select="result:num2dot($currentID)" /></VALUE>

This is because we do not need the <xsl:value-of() /> to retrieve the variable value, simply referencing it is enough.

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

Change

<xsl:if test="$currentID <= $endID">

to:

<xsl:if test="$currentID &lt;= $endID">

This is because < is a reserved character in XSLT.

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

I couldn't fully test it running due to namespace errors on the line xmlns:result="http://www.example.com/results" extension-element-prefixes="result"> however I presume this is a replacement to a real namespace.
