I am attempting to combine elements of one XML into another. I want to basically cut and paste one portion of an XML file into another XML file with the same basic structure. However, they do not have the exact same elements. Document A may or may not contain the elements of Document B. For instance, in my example below. My source XML contains <l_name/> X1 and X2 while my A.XML file contains these but also contains X3. I want to insert the values of A.XML <themes/> into my source XML were applicable ( so x3 will be ignored). I am trying two different ways without much success. The problem with my first attempt seems to be that the structures of the XML are the same. So I need to differentiate my AbbreviateAbsoluteLocationPath fo <le>. For now I altered the incoming XML to be called <Tle>just to see if I could get it to work. No luck Any help would be appreciated. SOURCE XML: <laes> <le> <l_params> <l_name>x1</l_name> <l_level>1</l_level> </l_params> <themes/> </le> <le> <l_params> <layer_name>x3</layer_name> <layer_level>2</layer_level> </l_params> <themes> <o_theme> <theme_name>TO BE REPLACED</theme_name> <theme_level>1</theme_level> </o_theme> </themes> </le> </laes> A.XML: <laes> <Tle> <l_params> <l_name>x1</l_name> <level>1</level> </l_params> <themes> <o_theme> <theme_name>TEST </theme_name> <theme_level>1</theme_level> </o_theme> </themes> </Tle> <Tle> <l_params> <l_name>x2</l_name> <level>2</level> </l_params> <themes/> </Tle> <Tle> <l_params> <l_name>x3</l_name> <level>3</level> </l_params> <themes/> </Tle> </laes> MY XSL: <?xml version="1.0"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl ="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="xml" indent="no"/> <xsl:key name="key-lookup" match="l_params" use="l_name"/> <xsl:variable name="l-top" select="document('A.XML')"/> <xsl:template match="*|@"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:copy> </xsl:template> <!--FIRST ATTEMPT <xsl:template match="themes"> <xsl:element name="theme"> <xsl:apply-templates select="$l-top"> <xsl:with-param name="curr-label" select="."/> </xsl:apply-templates> </xsl:element> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="Tl"> <xsl:param name="curr-label"/> <xsl:value-of select="key('key-lookup', ($curr-label/../l_params/l_name))"/> </xsl:template> --> <!-- SECOND ATTEMPT--> <xsl:template match="themes"> <xsl:element name="themes"> <xsl:copy-of select="$l-top//themes[l_name = current ()/l_name]"/> </xsl:element> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
