Hi, Terry,
Yes, setting a variable ought to be simple enough but I'm having trouble with it. This is the first time I'm trying to do anything real with XSLT and maybe it's too complicated a thing to be starting out with.
The id is in ListRecords/record/header/identifier so I made a little addition to OAIMARC21XML.xsl here:
<xsl:template name="OAI-PMH">
<xsl:for-each select="ListRecords/record/header/identifier">
<xsl:variable name="hathi-id" select="."/>
</xsl:for-each>
<xsl:for-each select="ListRecords/record/metadata/marc:record">
<xsl:apply-templates />
</xsl:for-each>
<xsl:for-each select="GetRecord/record/metadata/marc:record">
<xsl:apply-templates />
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
When I try to reference the variable I get the message "Variable 'hathi-id' has not been declared" (this is not in the MARCedit environment, I'm using a standalone processor so I can get diagnostics. In this particular case I tried to put the id in an 001 field (prefixed by the string "test") immediately after the leader:
<xsl:template match="marc:leader">
<marc:leader><xsl:value-of select="." /></marc:leader>
<marc:controlfield tag="001">test<xsl:value-of select="$hathi-id"/></marc:controlfield>
</xsl:template>
If you have any suggestions I'm all ears!
Thanks,
Mike
