Is there a way to use my $thePath variable, instead of including the

yes:
<docs path="jb">
<doc filename="wine1.xml" />
<doc filename="wine2.xml" />
<doc filename="wine3.xml" />
...
</docs>
<xsl:template match="docs">
<xsl:variable name="p" select="document(concat(@path,'/',doc[1]/@filename))"/>
<xsl:variable name="z" select="document(doc/@filename,$p)"/>
<xsl:for-each select="$z">
: <xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
puts all the document nodes in $z.
Hi David,
Thanks, a somewhat sneaky idea--I like it! The for-each is
superfluous/breaks things, but the following works for me (NB, now moved
to the top of my xsl stylesheet, rather than in a template match):
<xsl:variable name="thePath" select="document(concat(/docs/@path, '/',
/docs/doc[1]/@filename))" />
<xsl:variable name="theWines" select="document(/docs/doc/@filename,
$thePath)" />
Cheers!
Joe
