[Unsolved] changing dynamic text with choose, when, otherwise

[Alex Ivanovich]

something wrong in the code
I have done in the past, but I can not find the error
I would like to see the dynamic text, which changes

example
if and present one comic, show
1 Albo Catalogato per: (singular)

and if the present 2 or more comic show
2 Albi Catalogati per: (plural)

Code: Select all

<!-- Serie con conteggio e cambio dinamico testo in base al numero albi inizio codice -->
            <xsl:if test="series!=''">
			<strong><span style="color:red;"> ##CMD:COUNT:book,series=<xsl:value-of select="series"/>##</span> 
			
			           <xsl:choose>
                         <xsl:when test="series =1">
                           Albo Catalogato per:
                         </xsl:when>
                         <xsl:otherwise>
                          Albi Catalogati per:
                         </xsl:otherwise>
                       </xsl:choose>
			
			<xsl:text>  </xsl:text></strong><strong><span style="color:red;"><xsl:value-of select="series"/></span></strong>
			</xsl:if>
		<!-- Serie con conteggio e cambio dinamico testo in base al numero albi fine codice -->

It helps to say which template you are working with. This looks like series.xsl.

It is not possible to choose Albo Catalogato or Albi Catalogati in series.xsl.

The reason is there is no information about the number of books in the series available in the XML created by series.xsl. Also, the result of ##CMD:COUNT## cannot be used because the count is calculated after XSL template processing is complete.

Hi Dave

yes, the template is this series.xsl

strange, this code in "BookBrowse.xsl" but works perfectly

look Storia Storie

Code: Select all

<xsl:if test="numberofsections>0">
           <tr> 
             <td class="record_pane_table_group" colspan="2"><!--Contents-->Storie contenute nell'albo
			 <!-- hyperlink con conteggio contenuti e testo dinamico (storia, storie) (inizio codice) -->   
			<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
			<xsl:if test="/data/record/contentsdata/item/contents!=''">
                   <a href="Book_Contents.xsl" target="_blank">
                     <b><img class="index_image" src="on.gif"/> questo albo contiene </b>
                       <strong><span style="color:red;">
                          <xsl:value-of select="count(/data/record/contentsdata/item/contents)"/>
                       </span></strong>
                     <b>
                       <xsl:choose>
                         <xsl:when test="count(/data/record/contentsdata/item/contents) =1">
                           storia
                         </xsl:when>
                         <xsl:otherwise>
                           storie
                         </xsl:otherwise>
                       </xsl:choose>
                     </b>
                   </a>
               <!--    <xsl:text> </xsl:text> <img class="index_image" src="pallino_blue.gif"/> -->
                 </xsl:if>

Yes, we created that code a long time ago. The information just does not exist in series.xsl to do the same there.

[Alex Ivanovich]

I still do not understand, the code works partially

look at pictures

this is wrong <-------------the code works wrong



that's righ <------------ the code works properly



Why?

[LotsOCds]

I still do not understand, the code works partially

The code is not working. It always returns "Albi Catalogati per:" Sometimes that is correct and sometimes it is not.

[Alex Ivanovich]

ok, solved the mystery
