Dear list,
I have been trying some variants, but I think I've been stuck in the
namespaces and context location labyrinth. What I want seems easy: I
have a set of documents, all valid XML and want to output the contents
of these documents, either as one big XML document, or as a set of
documents.
In essence: using the copy idiom on each document and, optionally, doing
something with the tree that is input from the document() function.
Problem: all my nodes are gone and the external documents are output as
one big piece of text (except for the tags "doc" and "input-file") and I
don't seem to be able to find specific values, like the "tableData" tag
below. I know this is usually a namespace problem, but I don't know how
to solve it. Because it does not even work for one input file, I provide
a stripped down version of my XSLT below, that parses one external xml
document.
Namespace of input xml document: this is equal to the current xslt
document (just because saxon needs an input document. I don't actually
use it)
Namespace of document() xml doc: "http://www.nuntia.com/tablewiz1.0";
Namespace of output document: "http://www.nuntia.com/tablewiz1.0";
XSLT file:
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
xmlns = "http://www.nuntia.com/tablewiz1.0";
exclude-result-prefixes = "nuntia xsl xs fn xdt"
xpath-default-namespace = "http://www.nuntia.com/tablewiz1.0";>
<xsl:output indent="yes" />
<!-- name of the input file or files -->
<xsl:param name="input-file" select="'test.xml'" />
<!-- load the documents -->
<xsl:variable name="documents">
<doc>
<input-filename><xsl:value-of select="." /></input-filename>
<xsl:value-of select="document($input-file)" />
</doc>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:template match="/">
<output>
<xsl:for-each select="$documents/doc">
<xsl:apply-templates select="." mode="copy" />
</xsl:for-each>
</output>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="node() | @*" mode="copy">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()" mode="copy"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
XML file that is input using document() function, namely test.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<tableData name="bla">
<description>Table description</description>
<rows total="3">
<row id="35" row-index="not-applicable">
<cell>Row1Cell1</cell>
<cell>Row1Cell2</cell>
</row>
</rows>
</tableData>
