The above code works fine for the following XML file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<fxf version="1.0" data="hold">
<report records="5" lines="5" columns="2" rows="10">
<target format="" version="" type=""
destination="OUT"/>
<table>
<tr linetype="data" linenum="1">
<td colnum="c0">ENGLAND</td>
<td2 colnum="c1">JAGUAR</td2>
</tr>
<tr linetype="data" linenum="2">
<td colnum="c0">ENGLAND</td>
<td2 colnum="c1">JENSEN</td2>
</tr>
<tr linetype="data" linenum="3">
<td colnum="c0">ENGLAND</td>
<td2 colnum="c1">TRIUMPH</td2>
</tr>
<tr linetype="data" linenum="4">
<td colnum="c0">JAPAN</td>
<td2 colnum="c1">DATSUN</td2>
</tr>
<tr linetype="data" linenum="5">
<td colnum="c0">JAPAN</td>
<td2 colnum="c1">TOYOTA</td2>
</tr>
</table>
</report>
</fxf>
Now, my actual XML in Production world would look like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<fxf version="1.0" data="hold">
<report records="5" lines="5" columns="2" rows="10">
<target format="" version="" type=""
destination="OUT"/>
<table>
<tr linetype="data" linenum="1">
<td colnum="c0">ENGLAND</td>
<td colnum="c1">JAGUAR</td>
</tr>
<tr linetype="data" linenum="2">
<td colnum="c0">ENGLAND</td>
<td colnum="c1">JENSEN</td>
</tr>
<tr linetype="data" linenum="3">
<td colnum="c0">ENGLAND</td>
<td colnum="c1">TRIUMPH</td>
</tr>
<tr linetype="data" linenum="4">
<td colnum="c0">JAPAN</td>
<td colnum="c1">DATSUN</td>
</tr>
<tr linetype="data" linenum="5">
<td colnum="c0">JAPAN</td>
<td colnum="c1">TOYOTA</td>
</tr>
</table>
</report>
</fxf>
(Notice in this XML, under each <TR> you would find two
<TD>s)
Use this XML file, I am having problems. I need to specify
which TD goes into each column. Even if I use:
dataField=".(attribute('colnum')=='c0')"
it is not helping me.
Please help me. Thanks in advance.
