Filter XML Data

(Nick Papadatos) #1

Matrix Version: 5.3.2.2
Hi all,
Just wondering whether I can return a specific node within an XML file just using Matrix assets.

At the moment I have:
a/ An Asset Listing Page - this forms my XML data
b/ XML Data Source - links to the ALP and
c/ an XSL file for how that data is displayed etc

My question is - is there a way to filter the data (how to find particular node in XML and all of its child nodes?) based on a URL query?
example mydomain.com/myxmdatasource?node=abc

Any help would be great.

Have a look at the Dynamic Inputs screen and the Records Filter screen.

Should be able to define the dynamic input and then use that as a record filter.

Will that do what you are after?
