Subject: Using XSL to include non-XML data? From: Thomas E Enebo <Thomas.E.Enebo-2@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 28 Dec 1999 17:44:33 -0600 (CST) |
I am having a hard time trying to figure out how to ask this question. Here is a shot at it. I have a list of n text elements in a Java application. I also have an XML document that has a list of n sub-elements. I want to write an XSL rule so that the i'th element in the XML document will be rendered using an XSL rule that will put the text of the i'th element from the java application as output. Is this possible? Or should I be looking at this problem in a different way? The only two things that strike me are: 1. Running the XML data through two stylesheets. The first stylesheet will generate a second stylesheet that creates n template rules for each XML subelement with a xsl:param statement and a variable reference. When the data is rendered a second time, then it will grab the params from the java application and substitute the variable references. This idea scares me. 2. Create an extension that will do this. An example could be: <my_extension:insert name="sub_element" value="position()"/> I am not even sure if this is possible (I am using Xalan). -Tom -- +--------http://www.tc.umn.edu/~enebo --------+-mailto:enebo@xxxxxxxxxx -+ | Thomas E Enebo, Friend of the University | ???????????????????????? | | Phone: (612) 237-4607 Fax: (???) ???-???? | ???????????????????????? | XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
