Scott RentonSubject: Merge Files
Author: Scott Renton

Hi folks, very new to XSLT, so please forgive brazen stupidity.

I'm trying to merge two files- one for objects eg
....
<object id="4779">
<accession_no row="1">0007611</accession_no>
<other_id row="1">Or.Ms 114</other_id>
<collection row="1">Ragamala Paintings</collection>
<prod_pri_person_name row="1">Unknown</prod_pri_person_name>
</object>
.....

and one for corresponding technical data eg

.....
<av id="3219">
<caption row="1">Before Conservation, photos taken by Helen Loveday.</caption>
<ref row="1">0007611</ref>
<ref row="2">Or.Ms 114</ref>
<format row="1">Accession No</format>
<format row="2">Shelfmark</format>
<......
</av>
....

There's a 1:1 relationship between these files, but they come from different sources, so I want to be able to merge them into one composite file, for loading into a downstream app.

I wold match this field in object

<accession_no row="1">0007611</accession_no>
to this field in AV
<ref row="1">0007611</ref>

I know that this can be done in XSLT, but I've hit dead ends thus far on getting started. Could anyone point me in the right direction?!

Thanks very much
Scott

Also, I see there is an XSLT-specific forum, so apologies for posting in the wrong place.
