Hi, I have the following xml data:
<Sale><Site>101</Site>
<Details><![CDATA[ <?xml
version="1.0"?><items><item>desk</item><cost>10</cost></items> ]]>
</Details>
</Sale>
I have an xslt "my.xslt" that tranforms the elements above except
cdata part to result.xml. e.g <SalesItem><Location>101</Location></SalesItem>
However, I also have "another.xslt" that can transform the xml
part within the cdata section.
I would like to import "another.xslt" into my.xslt and be able to
transform the xml document within cdata as well.
With the result looking similar to the following:
<SalesItem><Location>101</Location><SkuDetails>
<![CDATA<?xml
version="1.0"?><skus><sku>desk</sku><amount>10</amount></skus>]]>
</SkuDetails></SalesItem>
Any ideas would be appreciated if this can be accomplished.
Without using any proprietary extensions, I suggest you write out the
<Details> element to a text file, transform it as an XML file, and
then in a second pass on the first file pull in the transformed
result again as a text file.
Using standard XSLT you cannot parse character data using template rules.
I hope this helps. The example stylesheets below produce the output
you cite above without using any extensions, though I have no idea if
it would meet any other requirements you aren't stating as I'm only
using the one file for testing.
