Using Instant Saxon 6.5.3
I have seen previous posts but a bit comfounded at
getting it to work for me... want to merge identical
xml files using xslt
the following is what I have so far...any help on what
my stylesheet should be would be gratefully received,
thaks.
ctt.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<ctt>
<doc filename="test1.xml"/>
<doc filename="test2.xml"/>
<doc filename="test3.xml"/>
</ctt>
test1.xml - all xml files have the same format
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<ctt>
<ctt_doc ctt_doc_ref="1">
<parent_doc_ref>testthis</parent_doc_ref>
</ctt_doc>
</ctt>
bad xslt stylesheet...(i.e. not working)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
<xsl:output indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="ctt">
<ctt>
<xsl:variable name="docs"
select="document(ctt/doc/@filename)"/>
<xsl:for-each select="$docs">
<xsl:copy-of select="./ctt_doc"/>
<xsl:copy-of select="ctt/ctt_doc/parent_doc_ref"/>
</xsl:for-each>
</ctt>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
current output upon:
saxon -o newtest.xml ctt.xml merge.xsl
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ctt/>
would like...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<ctt>
<ctt_doc ctt_doc_ref="1">
<parent_doc_ref>testthis</parent_doc_ref>
</ctt_doc>
<ctt_doc ctt_doc_ref="2">
<parent_doc_ref>testthis</parent_doc_ref>
</ctt_doc>
<ctt_doc ctt_doc_ref="3">
<parent_doc_ref>testthis</parent_doc_ref>
</ctt_doc>
</ctt>
