Subject: Re: [xsl] Including multiple XML documents with associated stylesheets From: Wendell Piez <wapiez@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 20 Nov 2003 17:53:18 -0500 |
Cheers, Wendell
I found a helpful message in the archives by Jenni Tennison on this one, but unfortunately it doesn't address the matter of XSL stylesheets in sub-documents, rather than using the transformation templates of the governing document.
I have also searched through Google on "multiple XML documents" and various related filters, to no avail. Accordingly, I will perform the separate transformations and recombination in Javascript, unless anyone here can point me to a better alternative?
Regards,
Alex
