Text value of input xml element as final xslt output - xslt

I have a scenario where the input(source) xml is having an element which contains a valid well formed xml as string. I am trying to write an xslt that would give me the text value of that desired element which contains the payload xml. In essence, output should only be text of the element that contains it. Here is what I am trying, am I missing something obvious here. I am using xslt 1.0
Thanks.
Input xml:
<BatchOrders xmlns="http://Microsoft.ABCD.OracleDB/STMT">
<BatchOrdersRECORD>
<BatchOrdersRECORD>
<ActualPayload>
<PersonName>
<PersonGivenName>CaptainJack</PersonGivenName>
<PersonMiddleName>Walter</PersonMiddleName>
<PersonSurName>Sparrow</PersonSurName>
<PersonNameSuffixText>Sr.</PersonNameSuffixText>
</PersonName>
</ActualPayload>
</BatchOrdersRECORD>
</BatchOrdersRECORD>
</BatchOrders>
Xslt:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:msxsl="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt" exclude-result-prefixes="msxsl"
>
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="text()|#*" name="sourcecopy" mode="xml-to-string">
<xsl:value-of select="*"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template name="xml-to-string-called-template">
<xsl:param name ="param1">
<xsl:element name ="DestPayload">
<xsl:text disable-output-escaping ="yes"><![CDATA[</xsl:text>
<xsl:call-template name ="sourcecopy"/>
<xsl:text disable-output-escaping ="yes">]]></xsl:text>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:param>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Desired Output:
<PersonName>
<PersonGivenName>CaptainJack</PersonGivenName>
<PersonMiddleName>Walter</PersonMiddleName>
<PersonSurName>Sparrow</PersonSurName>
<PersonNameSuffixText>Sr.</PersonNameSuffixText>
</PersonName>

Do you really need the mode="xml-to-string"?
Change
<xsl:template match="text()|#*" name="sourcecopy" mode="xml-to-string">
<xsl:value-of select="*"/>
</xsl:template>
to
<xsl:template match="text()|#*" name="sourcecopy">
<xsl:value-of select="." disable-output-escaping ="yes"/>
</xsl:template>
Would this template suffice?

I want to make check if indicator value is true then show some text otherwise hide it.
<freeze>
<indicator>false</indicator>
</freeze>
I am new to XSLT, please let me know.
If the description of what you want to achieve includes an "otherwise", then you're not in need of an xsl:if, but an xsl:choose.
In the example below it is crucial that the template matches the freeze element, i.e. that the context of the xsl:choose is the freeze element.
EDIT: Added a complete example based on your updated input.
Stylesheet
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:template match="freeze">
<result>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="indicator = 'false'">
<xsl:text>Indicator is false!</xsl:text>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:text>Indicator is not false!</xsl:text>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</result>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="text()"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Output
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<result>Indicator is false!</result>
The stylesheet below:
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="#*|node()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="#*|node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="indicator">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test=".='true'">
<xsl:text>some text</xsl:text>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise/>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
when applied to a your input (slightly modified)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<fileSummary>
<fileHitIndicator>regularHit</fileHitIndicator>
<ssnMatchIndicator>noMatch</ssnMatchIndicator>
<consumerStatementIndicator>true</consumerStatementIndicator>

<inFileSinceDate estimatedCentury="false" estimatedDay="false" estimatedMonth="false" estimatedYear="false">2004-02-02</inFileSinceDate>

XSLT issue with reading in non-xml data

I am newbie to XSLT.
I have a requirement to read a URL and convert some of its values into XML.
I wrote a XSLT that has to take URL as the input value and create a XML file from some of the content of the URL value.
When I debugged the XSLT in XMLSPY, I noticed that the URL value is not being picked up by inputValue variable in the below code. I am not sure if my approach to input the URL and the template match are wrong.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Input to XSLT:
http://host:port/abc/xyz1/6xyz6?qq=123&pp=3
Here the XSLT:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:nnc="Nnc" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:fn="http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions">
<xsl:output method="xml" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:param name="inVal" select="xs:string(http://host:port/abc/xyz1/6xyz6?qq=123&pp=3)"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:variable name="inputValue" select="$inVal"/>
<xsl:if test="string-length($inputValue)=0">
<xsl:message terminate="yes">
inputValue is blank
</xsl:message>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:variable name="value" as="xs:string" select="substring-after($inputValue, 'abc/' )"/>
<xsl:variable name="tokenizedValues" select="tokenize($value,'/')"/>
<xsl:for-each select="$tokenizedValues">
<xsl:if test="position() = 1">
<id>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</id>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
The desired XML output:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<id>6xyz6</id>
<qq>123</qq>
<pp>123</pp>
Well if you want to pull in a text file then with XSLT 2.0 and later you can do that but not by simply using a URL, you need to call the unparsed-text function e.g.
<xsl:variable name="inputData" as="xs:string" select="unparsed-text('http://example.com/foo')"/>
See http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt20/#unparsed-text, depending on the encoding of your text document you need to add a second parameter when calling the function.

Trouble with xsl:for-each

I must be missing some fundamental concept of processing an XML document. Here is my source XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<Root>
<Element>visitorNameAlt</Element>
<Element>visitorScore</Element>
<Element>visitorTimeouts</Element>
<Element>Blank</Element>
<Element>homeNameAlt</Element>
<Element>homeScore</Element>
<Element>homeTimeouts</Element>
<Element>Blank</Element>
<Element>period</Element>
<Element>optionalText</Element>
<Element>flag</Element>
<Element>Blank</Element>
<Element>scoreLogo</Element>
<Element>sponsorLogo</Element>
</Root>
And my XSL stylesheet:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="/Root">
<xsl:value-of select="position()"/>
<xsl:value-of select="Element"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
All I want is to pluck the "Element" names from the source XML doc with their relative position in front.
My output is just "1" followed by the first element and nothing more.
I am new to XSLT, but have processed other documents successfully with for-each.
Thanks in advance.

You're looping over Root tags, not Element tags. Try this:
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="/Root/Element">
<xsl:value-of select="position()"/>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
Note that you must change the second value-of select to "." or "text()".
XSLT is not an imperative programming language. The XSLT processor grabs each element in turn and tries to match it to your stylesheet. The idiomatic way to write this is without a for-each:
<xsl:template match="/Root">
<xsl:apply-templates select="Element"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="Element">
<xsl:value-of select="position()"/>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:template>
The first template matches the root and tells the processor to apply the stylesheet to all the Element nodes inside the Root. The second template matches those nodes, and outputs the desired information.

How to select element name, not value, using XSL/XSLT?

We are using XSL to convert a XML file into a pipe-delimited format.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns:tradedata xmlns:ns="http://schemas.com/enterprise/util/extractservice/v1">
<tradedata_item>
<ORDER_ID>113632428</ORDER_ID>
<CUSIP>31393FHA7</CUSIP>
<TICKER>FHR</TICKER>
<SEC_NAME>FHR 2527 SG</SEC_NAME>
<ORDER_QTY>169249.6824</ORDER_QTY>
</tradedata_item>
<tradedata_item>
<ORDER_ID>113632434</ORDER_ID>
<CUSIP>31393G2C7</CUSIP>
<TICKER>FHR</TICKER>
<SEC_NAME>FHR 2531 ST</SEC_NAME>
<ORDER_QTY>214673.0105</ORDER_QTY>
</tradedata_item>
<tradedata_item>
<ORDER_ID>113632431</ORDER_ID>
<CUSIP>527069AH1</CUSIP>
<TICKER>LESL</TICKER>
<SEC_NAME>ZZZ_LESLIE S POOLMART INC</SEC_NAME>
<ORDER_QTY>365000.0000</ORDER_QTY>
</tradedata_item>
</ns:tradedata>
We need the first line in the output to be the column headers, and everything else would be data, like this...
ORDER_ID|CUSIP|TICKER|SEC_NAME|ORDER_QTY
1136324289|31393FHA7|FHR|FHR 2527 SG|169249.6824
1136324304|31393G2C7|FHR|FHR 2531 ST|214673.0105
We've got the XSL working to get the data, but we can't get the header to output correctly. We just select the first tradedata_item element, then iterate the element name and separate them using | characters. Here is the full XSL...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" exclude-result-prefixes="xsl"
version="1.0" xmlns="http://schemas.com/enterprise/util/extractservice/v1"
xmlns:o="http://schemas.com/enterprise/util/extractservice/v1" >
<!-- xsl:strip-space elements="*"/-->
<xsl:output method="text" indent="no"/>
<xsl:template match="/tradedata/tradedata_item[1]">
<xsl:for-each select="*">
<xsl:value-of select="local-name()"/>|
</xsl:for-each>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="tradedata/tradedata_item">
<xsl:value-of select="ORDER_ID"/>|<xsl:value-of select="CUSIP"/>|<xsl:value-of select="TICKER"/>|<xsl:value-of select="SEC_NAME"/>|<xsl:value-of select="ORDER_QTY"/>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
The output we're seeing is just data, no header...
113632428|31393FHA7|FHR|FHR 2527 SG|169249.6824
113632430|31393G2C7|FHR|FHR 2531 ST|214673.0105
113632431|527069AH1|LESL|ZZZ_LESLIE S POOLMART INC|365000.0000
113632434|38470RAD3|GRAHAM|ZZZ_GRAHAM PACKAGING CO|595000.0000
Please disregard any namespace inconsistencies; I had to obfuscate the xml and xsl for legal reasons.
Try this :
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="text" indent="no"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="tradedata/tradedata_item[1]/*">
<xsl:value-of select="concat(name(), '|')"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Output :
ORDER_ID|CUSIP|TICKER|SEC_NAME|ORDER_QTY|
It seems pretty simple to me. Maybe your error lies elsewhere.
I tried your code.. I only changed the first template to match:
<xsl:template match="//tradedata_item[1]">
and it worked for me, i.e. got the header names.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" exclude-result-prefixes="xsl ofi"
version="1.0" xmlns="http://schemas.com/enterprise/util/extractservice/v1"
xmlns:ofi="http://schemas.oppen.com/enterprise/util/extractservice/v1">
<xsl:output method="text" indent="no"/>
<xsl:template match="tradedata_item[position()='1']">
<xsl:for-each select="self::*">
<xsl:for-each select="child::*[position()!='5']">
<xsl:value-of select="local-name(self::*)"/>|
</xsl:for-each>
<xsl:value-of select="local-name(child::*[position()='5'])"/>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="ORDER_ID"/>|<xsl:value-of select="CUSIP"/>|<xsl:value-of select="TICKER"/>|<xsl:value-of select="SEC_NAME"/>|<xsl:value-of select="ORDER_QTY"/>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="tradedata_item[position()>1]">
<xsl:for-each select="self::*">
<xsl:value-of select="ORDER_ID"/>|<xsl:value-of select="CUSIP"/>|<xsl:value-of select="TICKER"/>|<xsl:value-of select="SEC_NAME"/>|<xsl:value-of select="ORDER_QTY"/>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

XSL: How to concatenate nodes with conditions?

I have the following code (eg):
<response>
<parameter>
<cottage>
<cot>
<res>
<hab desc="Lakeside">
<reg cod="OB" prr="600.84>
<lwz>TR#2#AB#200.26#0#QB#OK#20120829#20120830#EU#3-0#</lwz>
<lwz>TR#2#AB#200.26#0#QB#OK#20120830#20120831#EU#3-0#</lwz>
<lwz>TR#2#AB#200.26#0#QB#OK#20120831#20120901#EU#3-0#</lwz>
I need to create a concatenated string that includes the whole of the first 'lwz' line and then the price (200.26, but it can be different in each line) for each corresponding line.
So the output, separating each line with | would be:
TR#2#AB#200.26#0#QB#OK#20120829#20120830#EU#3-0#|200.26|200.26
Thanks
This XSLT 1.0 transformation:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="text"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:template match="lwz[1]">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="lwz[position() >1]">
<xsl:value-of select=
"concat('
',
substring-before(substring-after(substring-after(substring-after(.,'#'),'#'),'#'),'#')
)
"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="text()"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>
when applied on the provided text (converted to a well-formed XML document !!!):
<response>
<parameter>
<cottage>
<cot>
<res>
<hab desc="Lakeside">
<reg cod="OB" prr="600.84">
<lwz>TR#2#AB#200.26#0#QB#OK#20120829#20120830#EU#3-0#</lwz>
<lwz>TR#2#AB#200.26#0#QB#OK#20120830#20120831#EU#3-0#</lwz>
<lwz>TR#2#AB#200.26#0#QB#OK#20120831#20120901#EU#3-0#</lwz>
</reg>
</hab>
</res>
</cot>
</cottage>
</parameter>
</response>
produces the wanted, correct result:
TR#2#AB#200.26#0#QB#OK#20120829#20120830#EU#3-0#
200.26
200.26
II XSLT 2.0 solution:
This transformation:
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="text"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:template match="lwz[1]">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="lwz[position() >1]">
<xsl:value-of select=
"concat('
', tokenize(.,'#')[4])"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="text()"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>
when applied on the above XML document, again produces the wanted, correct result. Note the use of the standard XPath 2.0 function tokenize():
TR#2#AB#200.26#0#QB#OK#20120829#20120830#EU#3-0#
200.26
200.26
You can use the XPath substring function to select substrings from your lwz node data. You don't really give much more detail about your problem, if you want a more detailed answer, perhaps provide the full XML document and your best-guess XSLT
