Re: Problem using document function in a template rule while combining two XML files?

2003-10-31 02:16:02
(Test.xsl)

[snip]

<xsl:template match="students">
<xsl:for-each select="student">
<xsl:value-of select="name" />&#160;
<xsl:value-of select="age" /><br/>
<xsl:apply-templates
select="$DOC2/students/student/qualification" />
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

     <!-- MSXML throws error at following point that it does not
allow variables at this position.
Even if I make use of document function directly instead of
taking a variable, it still throws an error.
-->
<xsl:template match="$DOC2/students/student/qualification">
<span>NAREN</span>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

The match pattern of the last template above needn't be so complex at all,
it can be just:

  match="qualification"

The template will be instantiated exactly on the necessary nodes, because of
this instruction in your code:

<xsl:apply-templates
select="$DOC2/students/student/qualification" />
