[xsl] Testing condition on external XML

[Stanislav Pejša <standap@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am transforming data from a database into an XML format. I want to run 
the transformation only on a subset of all records I have available. I 
put identifiers for those records that I want to transform in a simple 
external XML file, which I would like to use as filter.

Only those records should be transformed where 
document(acquisition-nums.xml)//acqnum matches 
tuple/atom[@name='ObjAccessionNo'].

The way I constructed the test does not work and the whole set from the 
source file is transformed. I got stuck on this and can't move further. 
I appreciate any hint or help on this. I am using Saxon B 9.1.0.7.

Thanks in advance, Standa

Here are the file samples:

File 1 - Source File (records.xml)

<table name="ecatalogue">
  <tuple>
    <atom name="ObjAccessionNo">2009.030</atom>
    <atom name="ObjTitle">OBJECT TTTLE</atom>
    <atom name="DatDateCreated">2009</atom>
  </tuple>
<tuple>
    <atom name="ObjAccessionNo">2009.031</atom>
    <atom name="ObjTitle">OBJECT TTTLE</atom>
    <atom name="DatDateCreated">2009</atom>
  </tuple>
</table>

File 2 External File (acquisition-nums.xml)

<items>
  <acqnum>2004.045</acqnum>
  <acqnum>2005.098</acqnum>
  <acqnum>2008.007</acqnum>
  <acqnum>2009.030</acqnum>
</items>
