Parameterized Macro: I want to display True/False field as "Yes" or "No"
Hi,
XSLT newbie here. I can't seem to figure this one out. I want to pass the field alias of a document's True/False field to a macro, and have it display the value as Yes or No. Here is what I have:

Hi,
XSLT newbie here. I can't seem to figure this one out. I want to pass the field alias of a document's True/False field to a macro, and have it display the value as Yes or No. Here is what I have:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [ <!ENTITY nbsp " "> ]>
<xsl:stylesheet

Hi Nathan,
Sorry, just about to leave work, so don't have time to actually verify this syntax, but hopefully it gives you the idea to start searching around...
Typically, I would pass the value of the field to the xslt as a parameter rather than the field name - something like:
then something like
...
<xsl:template match="/">
<!-- start writing XSLT -->
<xsl:if test="$field='1'">
Yes
</xsl:if>
...
If you want to do it the way your're doing, its something like (although depends on if you're using 4 or 4.5:
...
<xsl:template match="/">
<!-- start writing XSLT -->
<xsl:if test="string($currentPage/data[@alias= '$field'])='1'">
Yes
</xsl:if>
...
Thanks a bunch!!!
Hi Nathan (+ Patrick)
Here's a one-liner that does the trick:
<xsl:value-of select="substring('YES|NO', not($currentPage/data[@alias = $field] = 1) * 4 + 1, 3)" />/Chriztian
