Re: [xsl] Joining xml documents on the fly

I always forget to mention I'm on xsl 1.0. The role_id created a"distinct" set because everyone is automatically staff.


Thanks

I don't know how important @role_id as you indicate in your code above
is to your solution, but just looking at it from the point of view of
set operations on staff ids and project ids:

    <!-- staff ids of those people involved in project $project-id -->
    <xsl:variable name="project-staff"
      
select="distinct-values($projects/project_staff_roles/project_staff_role[(_at_)project_id
 eq $project-id]/@staff_id)" />

    <!-- staff ids of all people not involved in project $project-id -->
    <xsl:variable name="non-project-staff"
      select="distinct-values($people/people/staff[(_at_)staff_id != 
$project-staff]/@staff_id)" />

e.g. (you can replace the variables with document() calls, of course),

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";

      exclude-result-prefixes="xs"
