Re: How to test if a node is a descendant of a specific ancestor


It seems to me some reading on xsl and xpath would do much for you.

If you haven't got the time to do so, here's the code :-)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
           version="1.0">

<xsl:template match="/">
  <xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="//string">
   <xsl:if test="ancestor::head-row">
       <p class="head-row">some content1</p>
   </xsl:if>

   <xsl:if test="ancestor::body-row">
       <p class="body-row">some content2</p>
   </xsl:if>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
