Re:  Merge Two Files
see the other thread today. This is a classic example of where one would
start with an identity template.

Although here rather than having an identity template and then adding
other templates i just modified the template as in this simple case,
only one is needed.


 <xsl:stylesheet 
     xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" 
     version="1.0"  >
  
  
  
  <xsl:template match="*">
   <xsl:copy>
    <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
   </xsl:copy>
   <xsl:variable name="id" select="@id"/>
   <xsl:for-each select="document('mf2.xml')">
    <xsl:copy-of select="key('n',$id)"/>
   </xsl:for-each>
  </xsl:template>
  
  <xsl:key name="n" match="note" use="@id"/>
  
</xsl:stylesheet>


the need to use a variable and for-each is just to get round limitations
of key() in xslt1, in xslt 2 you could use


 <xsl:stylesheet 
     xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" 
     version="2.0"  >
  
  
  
  <xsl:template match="*">
   <xsl:copy>
    <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
   </xsl:copy>
   <xsl:copy-of select="key('n',@id,doc('mf2.xml'))"/>
  </xsl:template>
  
  <xsl:key name="n" match="note" use="@id"/>
  
</xsl:stylesheet>
