Apply templates on each text string .... 1

[simonchristieis]

What I would like to do do apply templates on each word in a sentence.

For example,

xml

<root>
<test>One Two Three</test>
</root>

<xsl:apply-templates select="dunno where to start" mode="stuff"/>

<xsl:template match="*" mode="markup">
<xsl:if test=".='One'">Oooh One</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test=".='Two'">Tis Two</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test=".='Three'">Yippee Three</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>

Thanks in advance.

Simon,

Study this set of examples. Look at the last example, named 'Replace', and you will find something very close to what you need.

With v2.0, use tokenize() on text node.

Thanks k5tm, I hacked apart the replace templates and came up with this:

	<xsl:template match="/">
		<!-- example showing replacement of '%20' with a single space -->
		<xsl:variable name="myString" select="'bob fred harry'"/>
		<xsl:variable name="myNewString">
			<!-- go create the result tree fragment with the replacement -->
			<xsl:call-template name="SubstringReplace">
				<xsl:with-param name="stringIn" select="$myString"/>
				<xsl:with-param name="splitOn" select="' '"/>
			</xsl:call-template>
		</xsl:variable>
		<!--
		show the new string. concat() will treat the result tree
		fragment as if it were a string returned by the string() function.
		-->
		<xsl:value-of select="$myNewString"/>
	</xsl:template>

	<!-- here is the template that does the replacement -->
	<xsl:template name="SubstringReplace">
		<xsl:param name="stringIn"/>
		<xsl:param name="splitOn"/>
		<xsl:choose>
			<xsl:when test="contains($stringIn,$splitOn)">
				<xsl:call-template name="ShowThis">
					<xsl:with-param name="String" select="substring-before($stringIn,$splitOn)"/>
				</xsl:call-template>
				
				<xsl:call-template name="SubstringReplace">
					<xsl:with-param name="stringIn" select="substring-after($stringIn,$splitOn)"/>
					<xsl:with-param name="splitOn" select="$splitOn"/>
				</xsl:call-template>
			</xsl:when>
			<xsl:otherwise>
				<xsl:call-template name="ShowThis">
					<xsl:with-param name="String" select="$stringIn"/>
				</xsl:call-template>
			</xsl:otherwise>
		</xsl:choose>
	</xsl:template>


	<xsl:template name="ShowThis">
		<xsl:param name="String"/>


	---	<xsl:value-of select="$String"/> ---


		</xsl:apply-templates>
		
	</xsl:template>
