Hi, please don't top-post. Marat Dakota, 09.11.2009 10:13:
Than it looks like I don't completely understand how it works. Could you please help me:
XSLT file is:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:my="testns" extension-element-prefixes="my"> <xsl:template match="/"> <foo> <my:ext> <xsl:attribute name="test"><xsl:value-of select="111" /></xsl:attribute> blabla </my:ext> </foo> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet>
Ah, yes, attributes. Attributes are mapped to smart strings when passed through Python code.
Function is:
def execute(self, context, self_node, input_node, output_parent): ????? print etree.tostring(deepcopy(self_node))
Remember that self_node is the extension element itself. It will not change during the evaluation, so printing it is uninteresting.
What should I put instead of ????? to make self_node having attribute named test with "111" as value? I tried to call self.apply_templates for everything (for self_node, for self_node[0], even for input_node and output_parent).
I would guess that you want to call it on "input_node". Calling .apply_templates() should return a string (although I never tested that), which you can then add as a new attribute to the tree. You have to do that manually, though. I would expect that "is_attribute" flag of the smart string to be True in your case (see the XPath docs), that would allow you to distinguish attributes from plain text context. Stefan
