Subject: [xsl] multiple source... From: "gabor farkas" <xlat@xxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 26 Nov 2001 10:53:38 +0100 |
Hi, i'm creating some formatting_objects documents... so basically i have an xml file, which i convert using an xsl file into an another xml and then i render that xml into pdf... the problem is that the xml=>pdf renderer only accepts one input xml file... so i have these options: 1.write the whole document ( 70-100 pages ) in one xml file..... 2.use some xml + xsl magic to assemble one document from many xml files... i didn't like the 1st option, so i tried the 2nd.. the problem is that i want the parts of the xml document to be complete ( and validatable ) xml files, which could be converted into pdf alone... like: the document consisft of chapter1.xml chapter2.xml chapter3.xml ... now i want to be able to create with xsl a final xml-fo document which can be converted into pdf... but.. i also want to be able to convert just chapter1.xml into pdf ( after a middle step ofcourse ).. so i tried the doctype-entity thing.... it didn't work because i got "multiple dtd's" errors... then i tried to use the xsl's document() function .... i used special tags in the main-document.. like <externalfile src="chapter1.xml"/> ... and in the xsl i opened the file and parsed it...it seemed to work but it didn't work on complex things... for example at the end of the document i create a table of pictures ... so i do something like <xsl:value-of select="count(//pic)" /> and this of course doesn't work because it won't parse the external files..... any ideas how to solve this? gabor farkas XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
