Is it possible to make anything like this in umbraco/xslt file?

<?php
for ($i=1; $i<=5; $i++) 
{
  echo "The number is " . $i . "<br>"; 
}
?>

what version of Umbraco are you using, and is there a chance of using razor instead of xslt? Your required loop would be trivial to write then.

Hi Kate,

<xsl:if test="./ikon1!=''">
    <ul>
        <xsl:for-each select="./YourDocumentTypeAlias">
            <xsl:if test="./ikon1!=''">
                <xsl:variable name="medialist1" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia(./ikon1, 0)" />
                <xsl:if test="$medialist1">
                    <xsl:variable name="url" select="$medialist1/umbracoFile" />
                    <li class="" style="background:url({$url}) no-repeat;">
                        <xsl:value-of select="tekstTilListeEmne1"  />
                    </li>
                </xsl:if>
            </xsl:if>
        </xsl:for-each>
    </ul>
</xsl:if>

With this code you should loop through all the nodes with a specific document type.

Hope this can help you.

Hi Dennis

it's not quite what I need.
I need it to count 1 up each time it runs through the loop so that ikon1 become ikon2, ikon3...

I think I have to take a look at the razor thing :-)

Andrew - the umbraco is version 4.11.10 and I have now ideen on how to use razor. Can you give me a hint on were to start?

Hi Kate,

In XSLT you practically never need to just count from 1 to X to do something; You're pretty much always doing something to a chunk of data, which is exactly what you have here too; You have four pieces of content that happen to be named ikon1, ikon2 etc.

XSLT works with by creating templates for content, so all you have to do is create a template with the desired output and then make sure to use that template for all four fields, e.g.:

<!-- Process all ikon# properties -->
<xsl:apply-templates select="$currentPage/*[starts-with(name(), 'ikon')]" />

<!-- Template for ikon# output -->
<xsl:template match="*[starts-with(name(), 'ikon')]">
    <xsl:if test="normalize-space()">
        <xsl:variable name="myIndex" select="substring-after(name(), 'ikon')" />
        <xsl:variable name="medialist" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia(., 0)" />
        <xsl:if test="not($medialist[error])">
            <li style="background:url({$medialist/umbracoFile}) no-repeat;">
                <xsl:value-of select="../*[name() = concat('tekstTilListeEmne', $myIndex)]" />
            </li>
        </xsl:if>
    </xsl:if>
</xsl:template>

No need to do any counting for that :-)

(If you want to, you can use <xsl:template match="ikon1 | ikon2 | ikon3 | ikon4"> instead of the substring thing - same with the select of the <xsl:apply-templates />)

Thanks Chriztian.

I will try that :-)
