I have to extract information from a collection of 8000 individual xml files. It has been a couple of years since I have used xslt, so while not a novice, I am very rusty. Where 'docs' is a sub-directory of the directory 'British Library' where my xslt is located and contains a set of files of the format *.xml, I wrote this xslt 2.0 stylesheet: <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:variable name="library" select="collection('docs/*.xml')"/> </xsl:template> and got the error in Oxygen: System ID: P:\British Library\read.xsl Severity: fatal Description: FODC0002: The file or directory file:/P:/British%20Library/docs/*.xml does not exist Start location: 8:0 URL: http://www.w3.org/TR/2005/WD-xpath-functions-20050211/#ERRFODC0002 System ID: P:\British Library\read.xsl Severity: error Description: FODC0002: The file or directory file:/P:/British%20Library/docs/*.xml does not exist Start location: 8:0 URL: http://www.w3.org/TR/2005/WD-xpath-functions-20050211/#ERRFODC0002 Current Thread Using 'collection' Mark Wilson pubs@xxxxxxxxxxxx - 29 Aug 2015 08:58:04 -0000 <= Martin Honnen martin.honnen@xxxxxx - 29 Aug 2015 09:04:19 -0000 Mark Wilson pubs@xxxxxxxxxxxx - 29 Aug 2015 09:09:31 -0000 Mark Wilson pubs@xxxxxxxxxxxx - 29 Aug 2015 13:36:22 -0000 Eliot Kimber ekimber@xxxxxxxxxxxx - 29 Aug 2015 14:12:42 -0000 <- Previous Index Next -> Re: Merging adjacent elements, Imsieke, Gerrit, le- Thread Re: Using 'collection', Martin Honnen martin Re: Merging adjacent elements, Imsieke, Gerrit, le- Date Re: Using 'collection', Martin Honnen martin Month
