chunking a very large xml document

2004-07-02 05:40:21
I have a single large xml file of the following structure:

<product id="m001">
        <record id="m002">
                <el1>aaa</el1>
                <el2>bbb</el2>
        </record>
        
        <record id="m003">
                <el1>ccc</el1>
                <el2>ddd</el2>
        </record>
</product>

I would like to split this up, so that 
(1) each record is saved as a separate file named [value-of-id].xml
(2) each of these new files should have a doctype declaration (ideally one I 
can change with a parameter)
(3) a manifest file is generated with a list of all record files produced.

I realise this is something like what the chunking stylesheets achieve in 
docbook, but those are so complex that a newbie like me can't really understand 
where to start adapting them. I would be really grateful for any pointers or 
example stylesheets that you may have.

Many thanks,

Munna
