RE: [xsl] XSL import

And another approach can be..
Make a DOM document node set of the importing XSL (using the <xsl:variable
name="varImportingXMLDoc" select=document('C:\myImportingXMLdocument.xml')"
/>(something like this) and use this nodeset variable $varImportingXMLDoc
where ever you want ..
Good luck,
Sreeni

Hi Bernie,

It is not possible to include on any other place than as a top-level element
(this counts for both xsl:inclue and xsl:import). Perhaps you can split your
XSL and do something like the following and put them in
main.xsl:

<xsl:import href="header.xsl" />
<xsl:import href="body.xsl" />
<xsl:import href="footer.xsl" />

Another approach you could use, is using the xsl:apply-templates and call a
matching rule from the included xsl file. Something like this (should go in
the header.xsl):

<xsl:template match="field/text" mode="header">
   .. do you header thing ...
</xsl:template>

Place the following on the place where you wanted the included XSL:
<xsl:apply-templates select="text/[@name='activeTab']" mode="header" />

Now you can place the xsl:import command anywhere you like (as a top-level
element, that is) and you can call the xsl:apply-templates whenever you wanted
to "include" the header. The reason I add "mode"
attribute is because I think you would otherwise have a conflicting match.

HtH,

Cheers,
