Re: Merging two xml files

Hi Arul,
  I have come up, probably with a simpler solution ;) 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>

<xsl:variable name="addresses"
select="document('employeeAddresses.xml')"/>
   <xsl:template match="/employees">
      <employees>
	<xsl:for-each select="employee">
	   <xsl:variable name="id" select="@id"/>
	   <xsl:variable name="pincode"
select="$addresses/employees/employee[$id =
@id]/@pincode"/>
	  <employee pincode="{$pincode}">
             <lastname><xsl:value-of select="lastname"
/><
             </lastname>				    
<firstname><xsl:value-of select="firstname" />
             </firstname>
	     <address><xsl:value-of
select="$addresses/employees/employee/address" />
             </address>
	  </employee>
    </xsl:for-each>
</employees>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Regards,
Mukul
