I'm trying to insert some HTML at a given point. The XML file has a content node, which inside that has actual HTML. For exmaple here is the content section of the XML:
-----------------
<content>
<h2>Header</h2>
<p><a href="...">some link</a></p>
<p><a href="...">some link1</a></p>
<p><a href="...">some link2</a></p>
</content>
-----------------
I need to insert a link after the header but before the first link, inside its own p tag. A little rusty with XSLT, any help is appreciated!
Given this source:
<html>
<head/>
<body>
<content>
<h2>Header</h2>
<p><a href="...">some link</a></p>
<p><a href="...">some link1</a></p>
<p><a href="...">some link2</a></p>
</content>
</body>
</html>
This stylesheet will do what you want to do:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="@*|node()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="/html/body/content/h2">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:copy>
<p><a href="...">your new link</a></p>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="/content">
<xsl:copy-of select="h2"/>
<a href="">foo</a>
<xsl:copy-of select="p"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
