    make a link out of a node

    Hi,

    I have  a line of program that just shows a node name in screen like this:

    <xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:GetXmlNodeById($deptrootid)/@nodeName"/>


    How do you make that a hyperlink to the page?

     

    Thanks

    Hi,

    You should use the NiceUrl function and pass the ID of the node, ex:

    <a href="{umbraco.library:NiceUrl($deptrootid)}">
      <xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:GetXmlNodeById($deptrootid)/@nodeName"/>
    </a>

    when I added that there's a save error:

    Try wrapping it in an if statement to ensure the variable has a value:

    <xsl:if test="$deptrootid != ''">
     <    a href="{umbraco.library:NiceUrl($deptrootid)}">
           <xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:GetXmlNodeById($deptrootid)/@nodeName"/>
     </a>
    </xsl:if>

    Hi Marc

    The reason why you get that error when saving, is because the ode will be excecuted at the time you hit the Save-button. But at that time, the $deptrootid is probably empty, so the NiceUrl-extension will fail.
