As it stands the transform expects there to be a header line... if you know your csv doesnt have a header line, then its simple to modify the transform to put one in. If you want it to handle a unknown mixture of csv with and without headers, then you are going beyond its original goal. > '

Yes, I have had the intention of correcting that for a while now :) http://markmail.org/message/64tnjaaarhu3buhk ...but the people that pay get the priority. > As a note on extending your example, the name for <root> and <row> could be > parametrized and I think that I would move <root> further outside the nested > code and allow $csvpath to be a space-delimited name list, for example, to > easily support csv file merge into the tree, by simply looping over the > tokenized file paths. I would suggest that rather do it all in one transform, you leave the csv-to-xml as one step, and do any further processing, such as combining csvs, or transforming the xml into some other xml, as subsequent steps in the pipeline. > Your code offers a good basic design and I especially like your regex token > grabber. That was done with the help of this list :) -- Andrew Welch http://andrewjwelch.com Kernow: http://kernowforsaxon.sf.net/
