You can use XPath in XSL. Something like <xsl:for-each select="timeSeries/seriesName/observation[ date='2001-03-13']/*> <xsl:.......> </xsl:for-each>
In cocoon, there are ways to "loop" through a directory, so you can query every file .... > > <timeSeries> > <seriesName>P12345</seriesName> > <observation> > > <date>2001-03-12</date> > <value>1.25</value> > > <date>2001-03-13</date> > <value>1.28</value> > > </observation> > </timeSeries> > > ... etc. > > Now: using the various mechanisms available through Cocoon, how best > would I "query" a given file (directly, as opposed to through a > database) via an HTML form, e.g., to extract and display only > selected dates/values? > --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. <http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faq/index.html> To unsubscribe, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
