RE: Top Level Element Error

2004-11-09 08:55:05
The files are well-formed because they worked on my
local computer but didn't work on a remote server. If
I comment out the line of code containing the
document() function it doesn't give the error but if I
add it back it shows me the error again. 
I don't know anything about Saxon. Is it an editor or
a class?

Thanks,



I don't see how that's a problem - why does that
prevent you from
applying the transformation outside of XML Spy?

If your source XML (including the XML referenced using
the document()
function) is all well-formed, and all of your
stylesheets are
well-formed (including those referenced by xsl:include
and xsl:import)
then you really need a more helpful error message
pinpointing which of
the files contains the multiple root nodes.  I don't
have experience of
the processor bundled with XML Spy, but Saxon
certainly does this.

The problem is that I have an element
<xsl:apply-templates 

select="document('http://www.medicinenet.com/rss/specialty/Tin
nitus.xml')"/>
within the <xsl:template></xsl:template> elements so
it sees it having multiple top level elements.

Ok, the next thing to try is perform the
transformation outside of XML
Spy, using Saxon, Xalan etc.  If you get the same
error you know it's a
fault with your code, if not you know it's an
issue
with XML Spy.
