RE: importing from txt file

John,
Perjaps you could tell the list a bit more about your environment.
For example, if you are using a JSP environment, you could include the text
file in an XML document, and then perform the XSL on that document.
The XML file could be composed as follows in JSP:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<myTextNode>
  <%@include file="myFile.txt" %>
</myTextNode>

Just in case,

Subject:  importing from txt file


in my xsl i need to reference an external document which is a text file.

i try to do something like <xsl:copy-of select="document('eg.txt')/" />
but obviously, because eg.txt isn't an xml file it won't work. is there
another way to import a file but treat the whole file as CDATA?

thanks.
