You can do like this:

<xsl:value-of select="name($currentPage)" />

This will return the name of the current page, which is named after the document type alias.

Hi,

It is not working.

It is not returning anything.

Can u say any other method.

Try this 

<xsl:value-of select="local-name($currentPage)"/>

Rich

Hi,

I just have the @nodeName ....from that i want to find the document type ...how to do that ?

The code 'local-name($currentPage)' returns the alias of the DocType, what is it you're looking for?

What version of Umbraco are you using?

Rich

Sorry, are you saying that you are not trying to find the DocType of the currentPage?

If so, maybe post your XSLT, how are you getting the nodeName?

Rich

This is my xslt....

<xsl:param name="parent"/>

            <xsl:if test="umbraco.library:IsProtected($parent/@id,
 $parent/@path) = 0 or (umbraco.library:IsProtected($parent/@id, 
$parent/@path) = 1 and umbraco.library:IsLoggedOn() = 1)">
                    <ul>
                        <xsl:for-each select="$parent/*[string(./data [@alias='umbracoNaviHide']) != '1' and @level &lt;= $maxLevelForSitemap]">

                            <xsl:if test="count(./*[string(./data [@alias='umbracoNaviHide']) != '1' and @level &lt;= $maxLevelForSitemap]) &lt; 1">

                        </xsl:for-each>
                    </ul>
         
        </xsl:if>

This is my xslt....

<xsl:param name="parent"/>

            <xsl:if test="umbraco.library:IsProtected($parent/@id,
 $parent/@path) = 0 or (umbraco.library:IsProtected($parent/@id,

                    </ul>
         
        </xsl:if>

Okay, so you are running with the legacy XML schema I can see. If you want to check for the document type you must use the @nodeTypeAlias instead of the @nodeName, so this must be changed:

<!-- Here i want to check wether page document type is "PublicationsPage" -->
<xsl:if test="@nodeName= 'Publications'">      
       <a href="{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}">
           <xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/> 
       </a>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test="@nodeName= 'Publications'">
       <a href="{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}">
           <xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/> >>
       </a>
       <ul>
           <xsl:call-template name="drawNodes3">
               <xsl:with-param name="parent" select="."/>
           </xsl:call-template>
       </ul>
</xsl:if>

to this:

<!-- Here i want to check wether page document type is "PublicationsPage" -->
<xsl:if test="@nodeTypeAlias= 'PublicationsPage'">      
       <a href="{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}">
           <xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/> 
       </a>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test="@nodeTypeAlias!= 'PublicationsPage'">
       <a href="{umbraco.library:NiceUrl(@id)}">
           <xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/> >>
       </a>
       <ul>
           <xsl:call-template name="drawNodes3">
               <xsl:with-param name="parent" select="."/>
           </xsl:call-template>
       </ul>
</xsl:if>

Hi vaibhav,

That looks like the old XML Schema, so you will have use @nodeTypeAlias for that:

<xsl:if test="@nodeTypeAlias = 'PublicationsPage'">

You can read more about the differences here: http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/reference/xslt/45-xml-schema ;

/Chriztian 

Hi,

<xsl:if test="@nodeTypeAlias= 'PublicationsPage'"> 

this is not working....

even if i do like this ....

<xsl:value-of select="@nodeTypeAlias"/>

it returns nothing....is there any problem with my code?

Hey,

Are you saying 

 <xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/>

returns something, but

<xsl:value-of select="@nodeTypeAlias"/>

Doesn't return anything?

Rich

Yes ...

 <xsl:value-of select="@nodeName"/>

returns node name but...

<xsl:value-of select="@nodeTypeAlias"/>

returns nothing....

what could be the problem ?

What version of Umbraco are you running?

With the new xml schema, you can do it like this:

<xsl:value-of select="name($currentPage)"/>
