Subject: RE: [xsl] Variable Substitution In A Select Statement From: Raymond Lillibridge <RLillibridge@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 24 May 2011 17:20:22 +0000 |
David, My XML input file is the resulting output from DIFFing two XML files. My $FileA variable is the 'old' file of the two being diffed. I need to open that file and then follow the "changed" xpath (/book/level1[1]/level2[3]/section[5], for example) and then get that sections @id value. So, saxon:evaluate() is perfect. $Axpath_new is the xpath string "/book/level1[1]/level2[3]/section[5]" in the example above. You showed me how I can combine "doc(C:/aaa/bbb/zzz.xml)" with a variable, that is converted to a node from a string. Valuable stuff, that. I really appreciate your help!
