Check for true/false property and return value in XSLT
HI all, have a problem with a true/false property taht i've use in a document type...haven't figured out how to check if the true/false checkbox is check or not in xslt and write the corresponding html attribute to it..
You can actually get away with this: <xsl:if test="productNew"> because a test like that will actually be silently performed as: boolean(productNew) - which will return true() for 1 and false() for 0. Handy.
But sometimes I'd actually do something like this instead:
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="...">
<div class="prdLt">
...
<xsl:apply-templates select="productNew[. = 1]" />
...
</div>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="productNew">
<div>div with new image tag comes here</div>
</xsl:template>
The "filter" - [. = 1] - makes sure that the productNew element is only processed if it's set to 1.
I know it's a *completely* different mindset, but it's actually pretty neat, and works a bit like a typical "one-liner".
Very cool, thanks Chriztian. I am slowly starting to use apply-templates after reading and implementing your last blog post about MNTP and I definately like them so far. Still a few things to work out though :)

HI all, have a problem with a true/false property taht i've use in a document type...haven't figured out how to check if the true/false checkbox is check or not in xslt and write the corresponding html attribute to it..
MY CODE:
<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/* [@isDoc and string(umbracoNaviHide) != '1']">
<xsl:sort order="descending" select="@createDate"/>
<div class="prdLt">
<xsl:value-of select="productNew"/>
<xsl:if test="string(./data [@alias = 'productNew']) = '1'">
<div>div with new image tag comes here</div>
</xsl:if>
<div class="prdBox1">
<div class="prdImg"><img src="{productPhoto}" width="180" height="140" alt="{@nodeName}" /></div>
<div class="prdName"><xsl:value-of select="productName"/></div>
</div>
<div class="prdBox2">
<div class="prdDesc"><xsl:value-of select="productDescription" disable-output-escaping="yes"/></div>
<div class="prdButtons">
<div class="prdButtDownload"><a href="#"><img src="images/butt_download_details.png" width="117" height="21" alt="Download Details" /></a></div>
<div class="prdButtAdd"><a href="#"><img src="images/butt_add_basket.png" width="107" height="21" alt="Add to Basket" /></a></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</xsl:for-each>
Let me explain..i have sort of a product catalogue with the option to add a tag NEW if its a new product.
when i use the value-of select="productNew"/>...its returning me the good values 1 for check and o for not check...but its not publishing the divs.
PLEASE HELP.
Hi Sam,
I think the problem is you are referencing productNew in the xsl:if statement using the old schema syntax. Try replacing with:
-Tom
Thats it!!!
Solved...thank you very much Tom.
