Re: [xsl] Resetting context to main document with "document()"?

Hi, I was using the variable before, but it is not a nice solution: the problem is that then I have the xml filename in the xsl, which is unpractical (what if I change directories for xml / xsl). I tried also to set the variable to "/" as shown below, but (MSXML) it outputs trash to the screen... There is the obvious trick of passing the same name also as parameter, but it is also not "elegant". I suppose there has to be a way to reset to the MAIN parsed document without dirty tricks..... <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version=" 1.0"> <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/> <!-- remove this declaration (templates.xml is the file I'm parsing, no need for a variable? --> <!-- <xsl:variable name="templates" select="'templates.xml'"/>--> <xsl:variable name="templates" select="/"/> ---------should I place it here? <xsl:template match="/"> <!-- <xsl:variable name="templates" select="/"/>--> ---------should I place it here? ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 05 Mar 2002 12:57:18 +0100 From: Joerg Heinicke <joerg.heinicke@xxxxxx> Subject: Re: [xsl] Resetting context to main document with "document()"? But this won't solve his problem. He needs a second variable storing the root of the current document: <xsl:variable name="doc1" select="/"/> <xsl:variable name="doc2" select="document(...)"/> Now you can switch via <xsl:for-each select="$doc1"> or select="$doc2".
