I want to visualise a bulk of data in an XML format, I found that xForms is a good choice for this purpose. while I'm googling it I found that xslt is a tool to transform between xml formats ( xforms among others). My goal is just to view my xml data in xforms.
I wrote the following code to do transformation. but I'm facing a lot of troubles.
<head>
<xforms:model id="my model">
<xforms:instance xmlns="" id="i" src="file.xml">
</xforms:instance>
</xforms:model>
</head>
<body>
<h2>LIST</h2>
<table border="1">
<tr bgcolor="#9acd32">
<th>"year"</th>
<th>"Count_Student"</th>
<th>"a50_60"</th>
</tr>
<xsl:for-each select="Statistics">
<tr>
<td>
<xsl:value-of select="year"/>
</td>
<td>
<xsl:value-of select="Count_Student"/>
</td>
<td>
<xsl:value-of select="a50_60"/>
</td>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
</table>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
where the file "file.xml" contains the following
<Statistics>
<year>2005_2006</year>
<Count_Student>2</Count_Student>
<a50_60>1</a50_60>
</Statistics>
When executing that code, nothing is depicted. Thanks in advance.
You can build the table using pure XForms without XSLT:
<table border="1">
<tr bgcolor="#9acd32">
<th>"year"</th>
<th>"Count_Student"</th>
<th>"a50_60"</th>
</tr>
<xforms:repeat nodeset="Statistics">
<tr>
<td>
<xforms:output ref="year" />
</td>
<td>
<xforms:output ref="Count_Student" />
</td>
<td>
<xforms:output ref="a50_60" />
</td>
</tr>
</xforms:repeat>
</table>
