True. At the moment for separation and simplicity I am keeping it a pure CSS file. Eventually, I think I will write a CSS.XML and write a stylesheet that picks it up and converts it. I guess I will have to manually paste the CSS into the XSL-HTML or use an extension function for now (maybe MSXML 4 will make this easier). Any other ideas to import the text from a .css file would be welcome. :) Thanks, Abhishek Sanwal HP - Houston Campus abhishek.sanwal@xxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: Brook Ellingwood [mailto:brook@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, October 02, 2003 11:39 AM To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: how to insert/include the text/data in a separate (butlocal) .css file into an HTML O/P using XSL Can't you just store the .css in an XML file? <?xml version="1.0"?> <css> <style>foo</style> <style>bar</style> </css> and then add it to the <head> using <xsl:template match="dacument('css.xml')/css/style">, or does it absolutely have to be a standalone .css file that gets included? If so, you could also write a simple XSL that would generate the .css file, so you'd only have to maintain the data in css.xml. -- Brook > From: "SANWAL, ABHISHEK (HP-Houston)" <abhishek.sanwal@xxxxxx> > Reply-To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Date: Thu, 2 Oct 2003 10:52:26 -0500 > To: <XSL-List@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Subject: how to insert/include the text/data in a separate (but local) > .css file into an HTML O/P using XSL > > I am curious as to how I can add the .css material from a separate .css > file into the HTML <HEAD></HEAD> . > > Originally I was adding a <LINK> to an external css. > But I am thinking it would better to embed the CSS stuff into the > <STYLE> > <!-- > ....X..... > --> > </STYLE> > > of the output HTML. > > Now in the place of X I would like to simply enter the entire material > from the .CSS file using XSL/XML. > > Reason why I need to do this: > 1.
