Re: [xsl] Dynamic import / include?

[JBryant@xxxxxxxxx]

Hi, Dan,

Not directly. However, I can think of at least one roundabout way.

You can have a first stylesheet read the name of that value and write a 
second stylesheet that specifies the necessary file to include/import. 
Then the second stylesheet does the transformations you need.

While I was thinking about the first answer, another came to me: You could 
use a very simple stylesheet to write a command that passes the name of 
the file to your main stylesheet as a parameter. Then run the command 
(which you could store in a file).

Either way, you end up with a kind of daisy chain effect to get it to 
work.

Spam:[xsl] Dynamic import / include?






Is it possible using XSLT 1 to dynamically import / include another
stylesheet based on the value of a node in the XML?

I have a node (which only appears once per XML doc) within my XML which
contains the filename name of a stylesheet to include - I'd like the XSL
to include or import this using xsl:import or xsl:include.

Is there an easy way of doing this at all?
