Re: Number of scans required ??

Hi David,

Thanks a lot for replying.

Well i did n't anything wrong while i have written few lines in CAPS. Its just 
because in my email interface i am not having power editing capabilities to 
emphasize certain point. It was just for emphasizing few points. If 
inadvertently it is offending someone I am extremely sorry for that.

If i got it properly, you mean to say that once i have written something in 
the output file i can not come to the point to rewrite something again in the 
same output file??  So the kind of output I want to obtain is impossible with 
xsl ?

I hope i am not bothering you. Once again i m sorry if my editing offended 
somebody.

Eagerly waiting for reply.

Regards
Dipesh

XSLT is not a file editor, you specify the entire output document
you can not specify incremental changes.

It's not normmly considered polite to type in all caps..

In XSLT you process the _entire_ input before starting the transfomation
so it's not a matter of "comming to" data after you have produced any
output.
