Hello,

I am struggling with the following issue, which is that I need to be able to output XML files to multiple folders based on the XML filename using XSLT.

All files with names starting with B should go to one folder, files starting go to another folder and so on..

I have the following XSLT and it works fine to generate the needed files, but I am not able to output to multiple folders, which is what I need.

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="2.0"

    xmlns:ditaarch="http://dita.oasis-open.org/architecture/2005/">

    <xsl:output method="xml" doctype-public="-//OASIS//DTD DITA Glossary//EN"

        doctype-system="glossary.dtd" omit-xml-declaration="yes" indent="yes"/>

    <xsl:strip-space elements="title"/>

    <xsl:param name="files"

        select="collection('../../../DITA/?select=%5BA-Z%2D%27%20%28%29%2C%5D%7B2,%7D.dita;recurse=yes')"/>

    <xsl:template match="node()">

        <xsl:copy copy-namespaces="no">

            <xsl:apply-templates select="node()"/>

        </xsl:copy>

    </xsl:template>

    <xsl:template match="/">

        <xsl:for-each select="$files//topic">

            <xsl:value-of select="text()" disable-output-escaping="yes"/>

            <xsl:result-document href="DITA/glossentries_all/{title/text()|title/b/text()}.dita">

                <glossentry id="{concat('dita', generate-id())}">

                    <glossterm id="{concat('my_title', generate-id())}">

                        <xsl:value-of select="title"/>

                    </glossterm>

                    <glossdef>

                        <xsl:for-each select="body">

                            <xsl:apply-templates/>

                        </xsl:for-each>

                        <shortdesc/>

                    </glossdef>

                </glossentry>

            </xsl:result-document>

        </xsl:for-each>

    </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

I got the files to be copied to multiple folders just as I wanted by using the following line of code, suggested by Michael Kay:

Code: Select all

<xsl:result-document href="DITA/glossentries_all/{substring(title,1,1)}/{title/text()|title/b/text()}.dita">

as shown http://p2p.wrox.com/xslt/90410-copy-out ... st292220">
