Can't you traverse up one level starting from the current node, and traverse the parent node (and probably ignoring the current node, aka $currentPage) and child nodes (will probably need some recursive template to get all descendant nodes for each of the siblings)

Hope this helps.

Hi Connie,

As Dirk says, you can grab all siblings of a given node by selecting the children of the parent node:

<!-- Grab all siblings, including $currentPage -->
<xsl:variable name="allSiblings" select="$currentPage/../*[@isDoc]" />

<!-- Exclude $currentPage from the set -->
<xsl:variable name="siblingsOnly" select="$currentPage/../*[@isDoc][not(@id = $currentPage/@id)]" />

 - those variables have access to the individual nodes' children (and grandchildren, ancestors etc.) - just use the standard XPath axes to get to them.

Well, something is not working right.

This gets every single child node of the parent including grandchildren:

 <xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/..//*">
  <p><xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/>
 </xsl:for-each>

This however returns nothing:

  <xsl:key name="years" match="*" use="Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes:year(publicationDate)"/>
  <xsl:key name="months" match="*" use="umbraco.library:FormatDateTime(@publicationDate, 'yyyy-MM')"/>

 <xsl:template match="/">
 
   <xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/..//* [(generate-id()=generate-id(key('years', Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes:year(publicationDate))[1]))]">
          <p><xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/></p>
   </xsl:for-each>
 </xsl:template>

So, there must be something different I have to do for setting the key???

Hi Connie,

To me, it just looks like you've forgot to add current() to get the publicationDate for the current item in the for-each (in the second half of the comparison). 

Also: If publicationDate is a standard xmlDate field (e.g.  something like: "2011-12-28T12:34:00+0200") there's no need to use extension functions to extract the data you need - example code below:

<xsl:key name="years" match="*" use="substring(publicationDate, 1, 4)" />
<xsl:key name="months" match="*" use="substring(publicationDate, 1, 7)" />

<xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/..//*[generate-id() = generate-id(key('years', substring(current()/publicationDate, 1, 4))[1])]">
        <p><xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/></p>
    </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

I added current() and still get no results.  Used your exact code, and still, no results.

Hi Connie

And are you using the new or the old XML schema?

New schema.

is working on a reply...
