I have this for-each sequence that filters the data when select statement is
true.
<xsl:for-each
select="document('../../released_xml/news_xml_en/newsticker.xml')/News/Block
[@STARTDATE = '01']">
blabla
</xsl:for-each>
Now, I want to know into how many nodes this for-each results, with the
purpose to use that number in this selection:
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="previous_amount_nudes = 0">blabla</xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>
you haven't said whether the xsl:choose is inside or outside the
for-each.
If it's inside then you can use last() otherwise you can use
count(document('../../released_xml/news_xml_en/newsticker.xml')/News/Block
[@STARTDATE = '01']" )
