Subject: Re: [xsl] inheritance and encapsulation in xslt? / xslt for xlink? From: Wendell Piez <wapiez@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 21 Jul 2003 18:02:55 -0400 |
I could write an acme-corp-2html.xsl and a world-financial-corp-2html.xsl and a zillion others, each including or importing us-gaap-ci-2ht03.xsl. I don't mind defining templates for those company-specific elements that I truly want handled in a company-specific way. However, a large number of the company-specific elements (oftentimes all of them) should just be handled in the same way as the corresponding elements in the basic us-gaap-ci.xsd.
Alas, XBRL does not appear to be set up to define this "class" infrastructure. On the other hand, the DITA stuff predates .xsd and XLink, so I'm hoping that there's now some standard way of dealing with this problem that will work with XBRL .xsd's. My "QUICK SIMPLE QUESTION (that could avoid all that follows, below)" was a guess (fantasy?) of how that standard way might work.
So, is there a standard example or methodology for this?
Cheers, Wendell
