Subject: Use of document() and an English description please! From: Dan Vint <dvint@xxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 02 Feb 2000 09:46:46 -0500 |
I've read several postings about using document() to process additional files, would someone post a template that does this please. Also, in reading the description of document () in the standard I'm lost and not even sure that I agree that the any of the combinations do this. Would some one care to take a stab at explaining the various combinations that document() can be used in, or at least the ones that you have verified work and what they do? ..dan At 01:03 PM 2/2/00 +0000, you wrote: > >> I do have XML files that specify the filenames and paths of all the >> documents in a specific subdirectory.
