    Show the Value in KiloMeters or miles based on condition

    Hi,

    I am not sure whether i am posting the topic in correct section.

    Here is my situation. i have a property in the document which is of type number and the content is allowed to enter the Value. This value holds the information of the distance.Based on the Location(for ex; USA/India) the value should be displayed on the Webpage as Miles/KiloMeters.

    Ex: I specify 450 for the property value and select the location as India and on the webpage i need to display as 450 KM. If i select the Location as USA it should display as 450 Miles

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    Bobby

    Won't you also want to do a conversion between miles and kilometers? 450 km is ~280 miles, and 450 miles is ~724 km...

    Is the Location set via a dropdown control or something similar? In that case, you could do something like this:

    <xsl:template match="Distance">
      <xsl:variable name="unit">
        <xsl:choose>
          <xsl:when test="location = 'USA'">miles</xsl:when>
          <xsl:otherwise>kilometers</xsl:otherwise>
        </xsl:choose>
      </xsl:variable>
      <xsl:value-of select="concat(measure, ' ', $unit)"/>
    </xsl:template>
