Hi Erik, Thank you very much for your reply and help. I already know the way of implementation which you sent me as an example. I know that we can mention the xsl in the xml file and the output will be in HTML when we open that xml. But my requirement is to have one HTML file and it should process the xml with the xsl embedded in it and show the detail in that HTML. I doubt whether it is possible. Please let me know if it is possible.

It is, but it won't accomplish anything. The XSL tags won't be recognized by the browser and will be nothing more than dead weight on your web page. Besides, if there are any text nodes (i.e. text contained between opening and closing XSL tags), the text will be visible when the HTML file is opened in a web browser, which is probably not your intention. What you can do, and which may be what you're looking for, is open an XML file with an attached stylesheet in a web browser (as long as the browser is recent, such as Netscape 7.1, Mozilla 1.5 or IE 6). The XML will be processed on the fly according to the specified XSLT stylesheet and you'll see the resulting HTML in the browser (provided, of course, that the stylesheet is designed to output HTML). Try this: (1) Save this simple XML code to a file named "text.xml": ----------------- <?xml version="1.0"?> <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="test.xsl"?> <PAGE> <page_title>MY TEST PAGE</page_title> <page_content>This text is the body of my test page.</page_content> </PAGE> ----------------- (2) Now save this XSLT stylesheet to a file named "test.xsl": ----------------- <?xml version="1.0"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <xsl:output method="html" indent="yes" encoding="iso-8859-1"/> <xsl:template match="/"> <html> <head> <title> <xsl:apply-templates select="/PAGE/page_title"/> </title> </head> <body> <div style="color: Red; font-weight: bold;"> <xsl:apply-templates select="/PAGE/page_content"/> </div> </body> </html> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="PAGE/page_title"> <xsl:value-of select="text()"/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="PAGE/page_content"> <xsl:value-of select="text()"/> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> ----------------- Make sure both files are in the same directory (folder). Now open the XML file in your browser. You should see the text contained in the element "page_content" in red, bold type as a result of the stylesheet transformation. If you don't attach an XSLT stylesheet to the XML file with <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="test.xsl"?>, your XML code will be shown by the browser. Hope this will give you some interesting ideas. Good luck, Erik XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
