Well, aside from how to generate the output (xsl:result-document in 2.0 or various processor-specific extensions in 1.0), you need to figure out how to process the same material twice in the same stylesheet. Perhaps modes would work. For example, consider the following very simple document: <exchange> <greeting>What's up, doc?</greeting> <response>Oooooo, you're despicable!</response> </exchange> and then an XSLT stylesheet (this one's 2.0, so I can use result-document) to produce two documents: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="text"/> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:apply-templates mode="one"/> <xsl:apply-templates mode="two"/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="exchange" mode="one"> <xsl:result-document href="one.txt"> <xsl:apply-templates select="greeting"/> <xsl:apply-templates select="response"/> </xsl:result-document> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="exchange" mode="two"> <xsl:result-document href="two.txt"> <xsl:apply-templates select="response"/> <xsl:apply-templates select="greeting"/> </xsl:result-document> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="greeting"> Bugs says, "<xsl:apply-templates/>." </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="response"> Daffy says, "<xsl:apply-templates/>." </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> And the output is two text files, each with the lines in reverse order relative to the other file. So that's one way. As ever, there are probably others. I have never used Microsoft's XSL processors, so I don't know how to generate two different files with those tools. I bet someone on the list knows that part, though.
