XML/XSTL Trouble

"... you mean these fans?"
in Importing & Exporting

Featured Replies

Hi,

I am having trouble with writing a style sheet, when I run my script that call for the import I get a error code 719 which is the "Unable to Translate" ??

Anyway ...

Here is my xml link;

http://www.floatrates.com/daily/usd.xml

Here is my style sheet

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<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:template match="/">

<FMPXMLRESULT xmlns="http://www.filemaker.com/fmpxmlresult">

<ERRORCODE>0</ERRORCODE>
<PRODUCT BUILD="01-11-2012" NAME="FileMaker" VERSION="ProAdvanced 12.0v1"/>
<DATABASE DATEFORMAT="M/d/yyyy" LAYOUT="" NAME="GraphicsPro.fmp12" RECORDS="1" TIMEFORMAT="h:mm:ss a"/>

<METADATA>
<FIELD NAME="XML Currency Description" TYPE="Text"/>
<FIELD NAME="XML DateTime Stamp" TYPE="Timestamp"/>
<FIELD NAME="XML Currency Code” TYPE="Text"/>
<FIELD NAME="XML Currency Rate” TYPE="NUMBER"/>
</METADATA>

<RESULTSET>

<ROW>
<COL>
<DATA><xsl:value-of select=“channel/item[9]/title”/></DATA>
</COL>
<COL>
<DATA><xsl:value-of select=“channel/item[9]/pubDate”/></DATA>
</COL>
<COL>
<DATA><xsl:value-of select=“channel/item[9]/targetCurrency”/></DATA>
</COL>
<COL>
<DATA><xsl:value-of select=“channel/item[9]/exchangeRate”/></DATA>
</COL>
</ROW>

</RESULTSET>
</FMPXMLRESULT>

</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

 

Any assistance in this matter I would be grateful.

Thank you.

Some of the quotes in your XSLT stylesheet are curly (smart) quotes; you need to replace them with straight quotes.

 

Or if you'd like to do them all in one go
