Yes, there is such possibility -- a "predicate" can be placed at the end of every
location step.
In your case you'll have:
<xsl:for-each select="Record01[field-C = ' ']">
<!-- All contents as in your code, but remove the xsl:if -->
</xsl:for-each>
Hope this helped,
Cheers,

Hi ! Could you please help ?
My task is : to create HTML report from XML document and to color every other
row for the result HTML table.
Everything is already done but I still have one problem:
If I use
<xsl:for-each select="Record01">
<xsl:sort select="field-A"/>
<xsl:sort select="field-B"/>
<xsl:if test="field-C = ' '" >
<TR>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="position() mod 2 = 0">
<TD ... class="C1">
<xsl:value-of select="field-A"/>
</TD>
<TD ... class="C1">
<xsl:value-of select="field-B"/>
</TD>
<TD ... class="C1">
<xsl:value-of select="field-C"/>
</TD>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<TD ... class="C2">
<xsl:value-of select="field-A"/>
</TD>
<TD ... class="C2">
<xsl:value-of select="field-B"/>
</TD>
<TD ... class="C2">
<xsl:value-of select="field-C"/>
</TD>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</TR>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
I've got result table where I can not color every other row because as I
understand the system :
1. retrieves rows and sorts them by appropriate keys;
for example :
1-st row (value of C-field is ' ') - black;
2-nd row (value of C-field is '11') - gray;
3-rd row (value of C-field is ' ') - black;
4-th row (value of C-field is '22') - gray;
5-th row (value of C-field is ' ') - black;
6-th row (value of C-field is ' ') - gray;
2. and only then excludes 2-nd and 4-th rows( where field-C not = ' ')
So instead of sequence :
1-st row (value of C-field is ' ') - black;
3-rd row (value of C-field is ' ') - gray;
5-th row (value of C-field is ' ') - black;
6-th row (value of C-field is ' ') - gray
I've got :
1-st row (value of C-field is ' ') - black;
3-rd row (value of C-field is ' ') - black;
5-th row (value of C-field is ' ') - black;
6-th row (value of C-field is ' ') - gray
Or other words does XSLT give us the posibility to use something like "where" in
DB2 ?
And if it does - how to use it within <xsl:for-each> or <xsl:apply-templates
select="..."> BEFORE SORTING ?
How this problem can be solved ?
Thanks a lot. Alex Genis.
