I actually wrote this several years ago when I was just learning XSLT. Since
it worked, I moved on to tougher problems. I am embarrassed to ask, but what
is it I donbt understand? I could not get these two files combined without
doubling one of them until I used bdummy.xmlb (an empty xml file) in the
bat file command line:
java -jar c:\Users\HP\saxon\saxon9.jar dummy.xml xslt\40Combine.xsl >
work\40Combined.xml
My style sheet 40Combine.xsl consists of a single template:
<xsl:template match="/*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:copy-of select="* | document('../work/22Authors.xml')/*/*"
copy-namespaces="no"/>
<xsl:copy-of select="* | document('../work/35Subjects.xml')/*/*"
copy-namespaces="no"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
22Authors.xml contains:
<List>
<Item>
<Heading entry="author"> Tabor, South Dakota. Chamber of Commerce
</Heading>

<Title>Czech days stamp cancellation</Title>
