 -------------- Input.xml -------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Person> <Name> <LastName/> <FirstName/> </Name> </Person> ------------------- Doc.xml ----------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Person> <Name> <MiddleName/> </Name> </Person> ------------------- Merge.xsl ------------------- <?xml version="1.0"?> <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0"> <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" /> <!--source of data; default can be overridden on command line--> <xsl:param name="source" select="'./Doc.xml'" /> <!-- Copy XSL elements and their attributes -->
<xsl:template match="*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:for-each select="@*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:value-of select="." />
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:for-each> <xsl:apply-templates select="node()" />
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template><xsl:template match="Name"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:for-each select="@*"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:value-of select="." /> </xsl:copy> </xsl:for-each> <xsl:apply-templates select="*" /> <xsl:apply-templates select="document($source)/Person/Name/MiddleName" /> </xsl:copy> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> ----------------------------------- Result.xml ------------------------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Person> <Name> <LastName/> <FirstName/> <MiddleName/> </Name> </Person> ---------------------------------- So, from the two input files it is obvious that I wanted to merge the leaf nodes of <Name>. I was able to do that using the above Merge.xsl file, but there is a problem with that. In one of the templates I had to hardcode that select="Name". But what I wanted to do is, without any hardcoding, I wanted to get the local-name() of the current node, for example "Name", lookup in the Doc.xml file, if there is any node with it's name as "Name" and then merge. There shouldn't be any sort of hardcoding. Can someone help me out in doing that. Thanks, Regards, Kalyan _________________________________________________________ There is always a better job for you at Monsterindia.com.
