[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] Loading an external file of index
 I have a lot fo files that are using a shared common index for managing references. Something like : 1) lot of files with contents like : <xmlfile><p>Here I want to define the <keyref linkend="xml"/> standard</p></xmlfile> 2) an other file called shared.xml with : <keysbase> <key name="xml"><acronym>xml</acronym><title>eXtended Markup Language</title></key> <key name="xsl"><acronym>xsl</acronym><title>eXtended Style Sheet Language</title></key> </keysbase> What I want to do is, while formatting my xml files to HTML, is to load first the shared.xml file for getting as a set of keys in order to be able to use it for formatting all files. In XSL T, it is something like : <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="html" indent="no"/><xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:apply-templates select="document('../shared/shared.xml')"/> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:template> .... <xsl:template match="keyref"> <b><xsl:value-of select="key('mysetofkeys',@name)/ACRONYM"/></b> </xsl:template> .... </xsl:stylesheet > My problem is that the standard says that the <xsl:key> declaration needs to be at the top root node level of a stylesheet and that at this time, the key elements coming from the imported file are unknown. So, the question is where do I declare <xsl:key name="mysetofkeys" match="key" use="@name"/> for being able to fill the table with all keys from the imported file ? Regards, Pierre PS : By the way, an other subconsequent question is how is it possible, for debugging purpose, to output the content of a key table ? Something like print(key("mysetofkeys')) ... ?
