Hi, hope this is comprehensible without a full example: I want to do some operations on my xml, and that's easier to do in Lua. However, I cannot find how to filter my results and pass them on to a command. In TeX, I would do this: \startxmlsetups xml:a \xmlfilter{#1}{/b/command(xml:command:b)} \stopxmlsetups \startxmlsetups xml:command:b \xmlconcat{#1}{/}\par \stopxmlsetups How would I do the same thing in Lua? Here's what I tried: function xml.functions.a(t) local b = lxml.filter(lxml.id(t), "/b") process(b) end function process(t) xml.xprint(t) end but that doesn't work yet, I get no results printed. So my question: what would be the right syntax in Lua? (And bonus points for: what is the equivalent of \xmlconcat ?) All best Thomas

Replying to myself to correct: should have been function process(t) xml.cprint(t) end obviously... Thomas
Gentlemen and noble ladies, may I rerun this question? It was posted on Sunday and may have escaped those of you who celebrated this day in some manner. Thanks for your attention! T On 07/28/2013 02:07 PM, Thomas A. Schmitz wrote:

- real test file needed - you use process before you define it another approach is: for c in xml.collected(lxml.id(t),"/b") do ... end (see x-mathml, x-cals for examples) ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
