Subject: [xsl] Simple XSL Pipelines From: Jacobus Reyneke <jacobusreyneke@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 9 Mar 2010 23:03:30 +0200 |
Good day, There are many ways to pipe XML output from one XSLT to another, but what is the proper way to do it? Using a programming language in between does the job, but is there some way to implement it elegantly with XSLT and Saxon alone? The idea is something like: data.xml -> filter.xls -> layout.xls -> targetmedia.xsl -> data_for_mobile_phone.svg This is just a thumb suck example, but that's the idea. I was thinking along the line of creating a master XSL such as pipeline.xsl which would work on parameters and call the other style sheets as required. I know I can do this easily from java, but I'm looking for a pure XSL solution. Also, I need to to be able in use more than one XML as input, which I know is not ideal, but it is better to get the requirements right, and to make the technology fit, than to get the technology right and to get the requirements to fit. The answer probably lies in correct use of <xsl:variable select="document(filter.xls)" name="filter" />, but I can't find an elegant solution. If someone can help or make suggestions or give an example that would be great. Kind regards Jacobus
