Example of Calling the document() Function

Suppose you have the following XML document:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> 
               
<books> 
               

              
                <bookstore>bookstore1:bookstore1.xml</bookstore> 
                   
<bookstore>bookstore2:bookstore2.xml</bookstore> 
                   
<bookstore>bookstore3:bookstore3.xml</bookstore>
                   

                
              
</books>

The following query returns the bookstore elements:


/books/bookstore

Now suppose you pass this query to the document() function as follows:


document(/books/bookstore)

This query returns the root nodes of bookstore1.xml, bookstore2.xml, and bookstore3.xml.

This video demonstration shows you how to use Stylus Studio's Web Service call composer to locate a WSDL file on the Internet, inspect, create SOAP envelope, invoke and inspect Web service data.

Map between EDIFACT and X12

Anything can be mapped to anything: EDIFACT to X12 or vice-versa, either to XML, and any of those to flat files or other formats. Both the XSLT and XQuery mappers can help bridge complex formats with ease.

Using Stylus Studio with RenderX XEP

RenderX XEP is a production-quality engine that converts XSL:FO into PDF or PostScript files. You can use RenderX XEP in place of the Apache FOP engine to render PDF files from Stylus Studio.
