Hi,
I have another problem as a follow-up to the one mentioned below. How do I transmit the value of the id attribute in the XML file down to the newly created elements? In the fragment below, the id is "something", so the XML that is generated should look something like this
for the first case
and
<p id="something1" c="WWWW"/>
for the second case.
A broader question that I have is how to relate (or tie) the nodes in the main XML file when the context has switched to the lookup file.
Regards,
-Farooq.
Hi,
An sample of the xml lookup file looks like this
The xml file that needs to be tranformed looks something like this
<p c="WWWW"/>
Any help is appreciated.

Hi,
I need some help with a particular problem I'm trying to solve. I need to transform an xml document that is based partially on information that is extracted from another xml file whose purpose is to act like a lookup table. However, the wrinkle is that the values extracted from the lookup table are xml fragments that might be one or more fields.
An sample of the xml lookup file looks like this
<AB> <TC name="a"> <TTM type="b"> <UCM preference="1"> <UC>S</UC> <UPS> <pa prefnum="1"> <XXXX> <YYYY/> <ZZZZ/> </XXXX> </pa> <pa prefnum="2"> <WWWW/> </pa> </UPS> </UCM> </TTM> </TC> ... </AB>
The xml file that needs to be tranformed looks something like this
<TM> <T id="something" TC="a"> <Type>b</Type> <Prefs> <UC>S</UC> <UPS>1</UPS> </Prefs> </T> ... </TM>
Based on the lookup from the first file, since the UPS value is 1, the corresonding XML fragment from above <XXXX> <YYYY/> <ZZZZ/> </XXXX> needs to be *modified* and copied into the output tree. The above code will have to look something like this
<p c="XXXX"> <p c="YYYY"/> <p c="ZZZZ"/> </p>
If on the other hand, the UPS value was 2, then the lookup matches the second XML fragment and the code will be
<p c="WWWW"/>
The problem I'm having is to figure out how to do the *copy and tranformation* of the xml fragment since I don't know deeply nested it might be. I'm stumped in thinking of an elegant solution to this problem.
Any help is appreciated.
