[xsl] Transform 2 XML Documents at Once?

[Ted Stresen-Reuter <tedmasterweb@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Is it possible to "merge" two XML documents using one XSL document in 
one pass?

I have an XHTML document that represents the "display" and an XML 
document that represents the "data".

The XHTML document has a FORM element that is used to capture data when 
it is entered into the database. I'd like to reuse this XHTML document 
for displaying the data once it's been entered (to confirm that it was 
entered).

However, I want to transform INPUT (and other FORM elements) into P 
elements while setting the text node of the P element to the 
corresponding data in the other XML file (which is really just an XML 
representation of the posted data).

I realize I could break it down into two steps (1: transform the XHTML 
document into an XSL document, 2: transform the posted data with the 
new XSL document), but creating the XSL document for step 1 just seems 
like more than I am prepared to do and I'm looking for a shortcut.

As always, thank you in advance. The help on this list has been great 
and as I get more proficient, I hope to contribute answers in addition 
to asking questions.

Sincerely,

Ted Stresen-Reuter
