XSLT Question

[LOW]

I'm going to rephrase my earlier question and hopefully make it more clear.

Now, the value of target attribute is being returned in the results as “target=”_self”. The problem is that all records have that attribute value in the link. The records containing “sirepub” in DOCUMENT_URL should have a target value of “_blank”. I assume that the “when” part of the conditional choose test is not being understood and therefore defaulting to the value of “otherwise”.

So it seems my problem is with <xsl:when test="$meta=$document_url and contains(/@V, 'sirepub')">.

Here's the code:

<xsl:template name="drawcell">
<xslaram name="meta"/>
<xslaram name="linkfield"/>
<xslaram name="document_url"/>
<td valign="top">
<xsl:if test="$linkfield=$meta">
<a>
<xsl:attribute name="href">
<xsl:value-of select="MT[@N='DOCUMENT_URL']/@V"/>
</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="target">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$meta=$document_url and contains(/@V, 'sirepub')">
<xsl:value-of select="’_blank’" />
</xsl:when>
<xsltherwise>
<xsl:value-of select="’_self’"/>
</xsltherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:attribute>
</a>
</xsl:if>
</td>
</xsl:template>

Here's some sample xml.

contains(/@V, 'sirepub')

/@V is not meaningful. The root not cannot have a V attribute

In the named template, if ever MT[@N='DOCUMENT_URL']/@V makes sense for the href attribute, I would guess logically the R is the context node. In that case, per your description, it is this.
[tt]
<xsl:when test="$meta=$document_url and contains(MT[@N='DOCUMENT_URL']/@V, 'sirepub')">
<xsl:value-of select="'_blank'" />
</xsl:when>[/tt]
