Re: [xsl] redirecting ouput to a different file?

Using Kernow I can easily run this stylesheet against a directory and it
will recreate the same filename with the changed content. That gets me
halfway there.

The question here is, can I read file of one name and output all this
result to a new file name based upon the values in the mapping file?

You can do:

<xsl:template match="/">
  <xsl:variable name="output-filename" select=" construct the filename here "/>
  <xsl:result-document href="/path/to/output/{$output-filename}">

...which will give you control over the output filename.  The default
output file will probably still be created, so you would need to take
that into consideration with the output file path.

Alternatively, move from the 'directory' tab to the 'standalone' tab,
change your transform to pull in the source xml itself:

<xsl:template name="main">
  <xsl:for-each select="collection(...)">
    <xsl:variable name="output-filename" select=" construct the
filename here "/>
    <xsl:result-document href="/path/to/output/{$output-filename}">
