xml and xslt and table

bepepi · Jul 30, 2002

hey there,
it`s a shame,but i have no idea how to solve my problem.
i`ve done an example from the w3.tutorial that display a table with two columns, but when i try it shows only one column.
i`m using netscape 6.2 newest version on linux 7.3.
and here, for your amusment; the code
xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="test.xsl"?>
<catalog>
<cd>
<title>empire burlesque</title>
<artist>bob dylan</artist>
<country>USA</country>
<company>Columbia</company>
<price>10.90</price>
<year>1985</year>
</cd>
</catalog>

and xsl:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="

http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<body>
<h2>My cd collection</h2>
<table border="1">
<tr bgcolor="#9acd32">
<th>Title</th>
<th>Artist</th>
</tr>
<xsl:for-each select="catalog/cd">
<tr>
<td><xsl:value-of select="title"/></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="artist"/></td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

i really don`t know what i`ve done wrong.

apart from the fact u are missing a </for-each> tag it looks fine to me on mine... out put is:

<html>
<body>
<h2>My cd collection</h2>
<table border="1">
<tr bgcolor="#9acd32">
<th>Title</th>
<th>Artist</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>empire burlesque</td>
<td>bob dylan</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

right?

hey flumpy,
i`ve added the for-each tag and the output is :
My cd collection in h2
and then comes the table with the right values,but i`m misssing a border for each column. there is only a border for the whole table. when i do the same in html i saw a borderline for each column and row.
and that`s what i want.
do you have any idea? [bigears]

add cellborder="1" to the table tag.

ark, for netscape it`s equal, with or without cellborder="1" there are no cellborders.
but mozilla does the cellborders, even with or without cellborder="1".
ok i could take mozilla to test my files, but i`m wondering why netscape doesn`t behave like mozilla does.
