I am not able to do this because the context node is
$external-merge-xml/Merging-Data/DBDetails..
and the for-each doesnt produce any result..
Is there any other way to do this?
At the top level of your stylesheet, bind the root node of the source file
to a global variable as in:
<xsl:variable name="source" select="/"/>
Then, when you are in the context of the external file, change the context
to the source file by:
<xsl:for-each select="$source">
I hope this helps.
