[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] Re: Including multiple XML documents with associated s
 I found a helpful message in the archives by Jenni Tennison on this one, but unfortunately it doesn't address the matter of XSL stylesheets in sub-documents, rather than using the transformation templates of the governing document. I have also searched through Google on "multiple XML documents" and various related filters, to no avail. Accordingly, I will perform the separate transformations and recombination in Javascript, unless anyone here can point me to a better alternative?
