You can use the @template for the node of the page in question. Something like...

<xsl:if test="$currentPage/@template = 1234">
    ... do something special ...
</xsl:if>

As I recall, the @template is the id of the template not its alias. If you want to use the alias you'd need to write a quick little xslt extension or use some inline c# in your xslt to get the id from the template alias:

umbraco.cms.businesslogic.template.Template.GetByAlias('alias').Id

cheers,
doug.

for xslt you can react on:

<xsl:if test="$currentPage/@nodeType = YOUR_NODE_TYPE_ID" />

hth, Thomas

Thanks guys,

Is there a way of changing this:

<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/node [@nodeTypeAlias = $documentTypeAlias and string(data [@alias='umbracoNaviHide']) != '1']">

from documentTypeAlias to a specific document type or template? Something like documentTypeAlias=1234

Thanks

Roger

Ok, I have found in the XML the node type alias that I need:

nodeTypeAlias="dtMainPortal

am i right in thinking that this is set like:

<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/node [@nodeTypeAlias = dtMainPortal(data [@alias='umbracoNaviHide']) != '1']">

Thanks!

Roger

Thanks guys. youve been a big help. I made an error with the umbracoNaviHide

This has worked perfectly:

<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/node[@nodeTypeAlias = 'dtMainPortal']">

    <li>
        <a class="portal{data[@alias = 'buttonType']}" href="{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}">
            <span class="btntitle"><xsl:value-of select="data [@alias = 'btnName']"/></span>
            <span class="btnstrapline"><xsl:value-of select="data [@alias = 'btnStrapline']"/></span>
        </a>
    </li>

</xsl:for-each>

many thanks again

Roger

I came to this post via a search for "xslt template alias", so if anyone is interested in the code necessary to get the alias (name) of a template via XSLT, here is the code:

<msxml:script language="C#" implements-prefix="fi">
<msxml:assembly name="cms"/>
<msxml:assembly name="businesslogic"/>
<msxml:using namespace="umbraco.cms.businesslogic"/>
<msxml:using namespace="umbraco.cms.businesslogic.template"/>

<![CDATA[
public string GetTemplateAlias(int TemplateID)
{
    Template templateLookup = Template.GetTemplate(TemplateID);

    return templateLookup.Alias;
}
]]>
</msxml:script>

I used this in a package I just uploaded, if you want to see the whole xslt: Dynamic Body Tag

I hope this helps someone else.
