how to add column wise data in xslt - html

Here is my XML File:
XML contains disk space information of hosts.
`<disk>
<host name="host1">
<partitions>
<partition>/par1</partition>
<diskUsed>60%</diskUsed>
</partitions>
<partitions>
<partition>/par2</partition>
<diskUsed>70%</diskUsed>
</partitions>
</host>
<host name="host2">
<partitions>
<partition>/par1</partition>
<diskUsed>80%</diskUsed>
</partitions>
<partitions>
<partition>/par2</partition>
<diskUsed>90%</diskUsed>
</partitions>
</host>
</disk>`
I want to display as below in html
I was not able to read them by column wise, can you please suggest any ways to do this?
<table>
<tr>
<td>host1</td>
<td>host2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>par1</td>
<td>60%</td>
<td>80%</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>par2</td>
<td>70%</td>
<td>90%</td>
</tr>
</table>
Any ideas how it can be done using XSLT?
Sorry Below is the XSL code tried. I cannot copy the code i wrote(in client env). So re-wrote it, sorry for the trouble.
<xsl:variable name="disks" select="disk"/>
<table id="disk">
<tr>
<xsl:foreach select="$disk">
<th><xsl:value-of select="#name"/></th>
</xsl:foreach>
</tr>
<tr>
<xsl:for-each select="$disk">
<xsl:for-each select ="partitions">
<td><xsl:value-of select="diskUsed"/></td>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:for-each>
here i am not able to print the partitions name

XML to Table <for-each>

I am trying to turn the following into a table, but I am having a hard time understanding how it parses through all of the child nodes. Will it go through each element until the last one or do I need to have a for-each for each parent node? Also, if there are multiple occurrences of "capris" allowed, do I need to have cells for each possible occurrence (say if there are 3 max but I only have 2, then I would still need 3 cells displayed).
XML:
<Persons xmlns = "">
<Person>
<Shirts>One</Shirts>
<Pants>
<Jeans>
<Shorts>One</Shorts>
<Capris>One</Capris>
<Capris>Two</Capris>
</Jeans>
<Dress>One</Dress>
</Pants>
</Person>
<Person>
<Shirts>One</Shirts>
<Pants>
<Jeans>
<Shorts>One</Shorts>
<Capris>One</Capris>
<Capris>Two</Capris>
<Capris>Three</Capris>
</Jeans>
<Dress>One</Dress>
</Pants>
</Person>
</Persons>
XSL:
<table border="1">
<tr bgcolor="yellow">
<td><b>Shirts</b></td>
<td><b>Shorts</b></td>
<td><b>Capris</b></td>
<td><b>Capris</b></td>
<td><b>Capris</b></td>
</tr>
<xsl:for-each select="Persons">
<xsl:sort select="Persons/Persib" />
<tr style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: verdana">
<td><xsl:value-of select="Shirts"/></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="Shorts"/></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="Capris"/></td>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
</table>
You had your xsl:for-each matching rule wrong.
Use the following template: it matches the root <Persons> element, creates the <html> and <body> elements and the <table>.
Finally, it iterates over the <Person> elements with an xsl:for-each. This works, because the context node is right (Person is a child of Persons).
The Capris situation is resolved by iterating over all Capris elements and creating a <td> for each present element. You can see this by looking at the borders of the elements.
One thing left to be corrected is the xsl:sort element. It tries to sort by the value of a <Persib> element which is not present in the example. I guess that you can fix this on your own.
<xsl:template match="/Persons">
<html>
<body>
<table border="1">
<tr bgcolor="yellow">
<td><b>Shirts</b></td>
<td><b>Shorts</b></td>
<td><b>Capris</b></td>
<td><b>Capris</b></td>
<td><b>Capris</b></td>
</tr>
<xsl:for-each select="Person">
<xsl:sort select="Persib" />
<tr style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: verdana">
<td>
<xsl:value-of select="Shirts"/>
</td>
<td>
<xsl:value-of select="Pants/Jeans/Shorts"/>
</td>
<xsl:for-each select="Pants/Jeans/Capris">
<td>
<xsl:value-of select="." />
</td>
</xsl:for-each>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
</table>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
The output should be as desired.

display xml and xslt in a browser

I have 2 files, file.xml and file.xsl that I have made. I am looking for how to see the result in a browser. From my research I have understood that only IE got an xml parser and that for the others browser I need a servor script.
I have also put these lines at the top of my xml file :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="Employe.xsl"?>
and these lignes at the top of my xsl file :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
However, even when i'm using IE (11) I only have the text without any style that I have put.
I wanted to display the elemnts in a table but there isn't any.
I am giving you my code for the table if there is any mistakes I haven't found, but normaly it is ok.
Here is the xsl code :
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<body>

Your stylesheet needs some improvement, but you're not far off a solution. It's not a beautiful solution, but it successfully transforms your input XML. (A better solution would have used several templates, not a huge one with several for-each statements).
Clearing up a few things
You say:
From my research I have understood that only IE got an xml parser and that for the others browser I need a servor script
No, that's not true. Every major browser has a decent XML parser. You do not need any server-side code to parse XML. Likewise, every major browser (IE, Chrome, Firefox, Safari) ships with an XSLT processor, though only supporting XSLT 1.0.
However, even when i'm using IE (11) I only have the text without any style that I have put.
Getting nothing but all textual content from the input XML as the result of a transformation usually means: none of your templates could match the input elements. None of your code was applied, and the default action is taken: invoking the built-in templates, that only output all text nodes.
It's unclear to me why no templates should apply in your case, let me know whether the stylesheet I suggest below changes the output.
Stylesheet
I have made the following changes to your stylesheet:
There was a stray <td/> that should be </td>, because it ends a td element.
Added quotes to all attribute values. Attribute values absolutely need to be in quotes ("..."), since the XSLT code must itself be well-formed XML.
An HTML parser can deal with a lot of errors (e.g. unquoted attribute values), but XML parsers are very strict on this.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">

Also consider adding the following line to your stylesheet:
<xsl:output method="html" indent="yes"/>
To make it explicit that you'd like to output HTML.

Checking multiple values of nodes in xml from xslt and displaying in html

I have an XML file which i got by exporting a database. now i need to show the xml data in html page as a table. to do so, i have to check the corresponding values for a particular data in the XML file from an XSLT file. since my database is a bit complicated, i am facing difficulties in checking the multiple values of differnt nodes and selecting a corresponding values from another node of the xml file. e.g. i have the following xml data-

I am stuck in the following point.
if you notice there are fm nodes, effect nodes and naviagtes2 nodes.
in my html page, there will be a table where values of first column come from fm nodes (root/name1/names/fm/name) and values of second column come from effect nodes (root/FFrom/effect/name). in the naviagtes2 nodes, there are fm and effect elements which are equivalent to fm/id and effect/id. that is, naviagtes2 nodes are used to check which values of effect/name will be against fm/name in the table. conditions are like following
root/name1/names/fm/name against root/FFrom/effect/name if
root/name1/names/fm/id = root/name2/newNames/route1/naviagtes2/fm and
root/FFrom/effect/id = root/name2/newNames/route1/naviagtes2/effect
i am new in XSLT programming. Could anyone give me any clue please how to solve that in XSLT ?
in the naviagtes2 nodes, there are fm and effect elements which are
equivalent to fm/id and effect/id. that is, naviagtes2 nodes are used
to check which values of effect/name will be against fm/name in the
table.
I am afraid I still don't understand your question, but in an effort of moving this forward, I'll take a stab (in the dark?) at it.
The following stylesheet uses keys to link each naviagtes2 node to the fm and effect elements whose ids are listed in the naviagtes2 node. Thus each naviagtes2 node creates a {fm,effect} "pair" and these pairs are listed in the resulting table, along with the values fetched from the paired elements:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:key name="fm" match="name1/names/fm" use="id" />
<xsl:key name="effect" match="FFrom/effect" use="id" />
<xsl:template match="/">
<table border="1" >
<tr>
<th>id</th>
<th>fm id</th>
<th>effect id</th>
<th>fm name</th>
<th>effect name</th>
</tr>
<xsl:for-each select="root/name2/newNames/route1/naviagtes2">
<tr>
<td><xsl:value-of select="id" /></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="fm" /></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="effect" /></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="key('fm', fm)/name" /></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="key('effect', effect)/name" /></td>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
</table>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
when applied to your example input, the result is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<table border="1">
<tr>
<th>id</th>
<th>fm id</th>
<th>effect id</th>
<th>fm name</th>
<th>effect name</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>9</td>
<td>7</td>
<td>2</td>
<td/>
<td/>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>10</td>
<td>8</td>
<td>5</td>
<td/>

<td>11</td>
<td>Vienna</td>
<td>SAA Name</td>

<tr>
<td>69</td>

which in HTML would be rendered as:

Displaying an XML file with XSL to look like HTML

I'm brand new to markup languages and need to display an HTML table, convert it to XML then display it using XSL looking the same as the HTML. Here's a bit of the HTML table:
<table border="1"
cellpadding="5"
summary="Obesity and other statistics">
<tr>
<th>State</th>
<th>Obese adults</th>
<th>Obese children and adolescents</th>
<th>Median Household Income</th>
<th>H.S Graduation rate</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Mississippi</td>
<td>34.4%</td>
<td>17.8%</td>
<td>$36,919</td>
<td>80.4%</td>
</tr>
4 columns, and several rows with 1 title row. Has a summary (not necessary, can be removed for ease), cell padding and a border. Here's the start of the XML table:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="mg.xsl"?>
<data>
<columns>
<State>State</State>
<Obese_adults>Obese adults</Obese_adults>
<Obese_children_and_adolescents>Obese children and adolescents</Obese_children_and_adolescents>
<Median_Household_Income>Median Household Income</Median_Household_Income>
<H_S_Graduation_rate>H.S Graduation rate</H_S_Graduation_rate>
</columns>
<records>
<record>
<State>Mississippi</State>
<Obese_adults>34.4%</Obese_adults>
<Obese_children_and_adolescents>17.8%</Obese_children_and_adolescents>
<Median_Household_Income>$36,919</Median_Household_Income>
<H_S_Graduation_rate>80.4%</H_S_Graduation_rate>
</record>
That was converted following a guideline which may or may not be any good for what I'm trying to do. Couldn't find any clear explanation on what it all does or how to use it with the xsl either.
Here's what I have of the XSL
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<body>
<h2></h2>
<table border="1">
<th>State</th>
<th>Obese adults</th>
<th>Obese children and adolescents</th>
<th>Median Household Income</th>
<th>H.S Graduation rate</th>
</tr>
<xsl:for-each select="data/records/record">
<tr>
<td><xsl:value-of select="State"/></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="Obese adults"/></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="Obese children and adolescents"/></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="Median Household Income"/></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="H.S Graduation rate"/></td>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
</table>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
which was again formed following a template I found. I have an idea of what it's doing, but not what it's doing wrong and why it isn't working. I would appreciate some help, especially if I am far off of what is the correct way to go about doing this. Thanks
edit: error I'm getting is "Error loading stylesheet: XPath parse failure: operator expected:" by the way.
You have some small mistakes in ur XSLT here is the edited one of yours;
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

the output of this applied to your XML will be;

Use xslt to convert xml list into html table with multiple columns

Say I have an xml document consisting of a list as shown below:
<Items>
<Item>First Item</Item>
<Item>Second Item</Item>
<Item>Third Item</Item>
<Item>4</Item>
<Item>Five</Item>
</Items>
I want to convert it to a html table with two columns for the Item elements (I'm not fussed at the moment whether it's ordererd top-bottom-left-right or left-right-top-bottom).
<table>
<tr>
<td>First Item</td>
<td>Second Item</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Third Item</td>
<td>4</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Five</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
</table>
I understand I can get a table with a single column with the following xslt transform, but can't figure out how to get multiple columns.
<table>
<xsl:for-each select="Items">
<tr>
<td><xsl:value-of select="Item"/></td>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
</table>
Try this:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/Items">
<table>
<xsl:for-each select="Item[position() mod 2 = 1]">
<xsl:variable name="pos" select="position() - 1" />
<tr>
<td><xsl:value-of select="."/></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="//Item[position() = ($pos * 2) + 2]"/></td>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
</table>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
