Problem with XSLT (after trying a variety of examples)

I'm using this XSLT:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [ <!ENTITY nbsp " "> ]>
<xsl:stylesheet
    version="1.0"
    xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
    xmlns:msxml="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt"
    xmlns:umbraco.library="urn:umbraco.library" xmlns:Exslt.ExsltCommon="urn:Exslt.ExsltCommon" xmlns:Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes="urn:Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes" xmlns:Exslt.ExsltMath="urn:Exslt.ExsltMath" xmlns:Exslt.ExsltRegularExpressions="urn:Exslt.ExsltRegularExpressions" xmlns:Exslt.ExsltStrings="urn:Exslt.ExsltStrings" xmlns:Exslt.ExsltSets="urn:Exslt.ExsltSets"
    exclude-result-prefixes="msxml umbraco.library Exslt.ExsltCommon Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes Exslt.ExsltMath Exslt.ExsltRegularExpressions Exslt.ExsltStrings Exslt.ExsltSets ">

<xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>

<xsl:param name="currentPage"/>

<xsl:template match="/">

<html>
<body>
<ul>
    <li><xsl:value-of select="$currentPage/node/node [@alias='tagLine']/text()"/></li>
</ul>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

As a test to show the contents of a node, but I'm not getting any output in the XSLT Visualizer. Are there any glaring mistakes you can see?

Thanks,

Darryl

Hi,

need to use
```
<xsl:value-of select="$currentPage/data [@alias='tagLine']"/>
```
instead of your xslt statement.

Explanation: custom properties can be found on a /data subnode

Cheers,

Just tried it and there's no output...

Would it help to post the umbraco.config?

Hi Darryl,

No need to post your umbraco.config.

Try the following XSLT to see the XML content of the $currentPage:
```
<xmp>
    <xsl:copy-of select="$currentPage" />
</xmp>
```
If you need help understanding how the $currentPage works, take a read of the wiki page about it.

http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/reference/xslt/understanding-currentpage

If you still need help, come back here.

Cheers, Lee.

Oki doke, here goes:

<!DOCTYPE umbraco[ <!ELEMENT nodes ANY> <!ELEMENT node ANY> <!ATTLIST node id ID #REQUIRED> ]>
<root id="-1">

      <data alias="metadescription" />

      <node id="1089" version="e2e39ff5-4791-4348-85a9-fcb5fc5cfc19" parentID="1088" level="3" writerID="0" creatorID="0" nodeType="1085" template="0" sortOrder="1" createDate="2010-01-19T09:41:43" updateDate="2010-01-19T09:43:51" nodeName="Tom Jones" urlName="tom-jones" writerName="Administrator" creatorName="Administrator" nodeTypeAlias="Event" path="-1,1080,1088,1089">
        <data alias="venue"><![CDATA[Bristol Hippodrome]]></data>
        <data alias="description"><![CDATA[Tom Jones returns, yes he's still going folks]]></data>
        <data alias="category"><![CDATA[Concert]]></data>
        <data alias="imagemedium">/images/tj.png</data>
        <data alias="imagesmall">/images/tj_small.png</data>
        <data alias="tagline">Tom Jones live</data>

So the ideal thing is to get items like the tagLine etc...

Thanks,

Darryl

Gah! Case sensitivity of XML, tagLine is actually tagline...
