Re: Select attribute value within attribute with multiple values

Dear all,

Following my previous email, I just want to tell you that I found a solution.
For those who might be interested for parsing TEI data within R:

#getNodeSet from //ns:, then
listInterp <- unlist(nodelist)
listInterp
 for (i in 1:length(interp)) {
   {
   (cbind(
    (a=(KTU = (xmlGetAttr(interp[[i]],"ana")))), 
    (b=(verb.category = (xmlGetAttr(interpRef[[i]],"ana")))),
    (c=(Character = (xmlGetAttr(interpPers[[i]],"ana")))),
    (d=(State =(xmlGetAttr(interpPers_State[[i]],"ana")))),
    (e= Location = (xmlGetAttr(interpPlace_Loc[[i]],"ana")))
     ))
   listInterp[[i]] <- (paste(word(word(a,-1)), collapse=": ", (word(b, -2, -1)), (word(c, -2)), (word(d, -1)), (word(e, -1)))) #to select attribute values
    }
   listInterp <- unlist(lapply(listInterp,gsub,pattern="#",replacement="")) #to replace # by empty space  
}
listInterp

> Result for listInterp (sample)
[1] "ktu1-3_ii_l5b-6a verb.competition contend ANT active outside" 
[2] "ktu1-3_ii_l6b verb.competition contend ANT active outside"   
[3] "ktu1-3_ii_l7 verb.emotion humiliation ANT active outside"    
[4] "ktu1-3_ii_l8 verb.emotion humiliation ANT active outside"    


Best,

Vanessa
