I am using XSLT (triggered from terminal) to build 2 separate XHTML documents in their own folder structure (e.g. "doc-1-folder", "doc-2-folder"). Each time I build I would like to have a "local" output, but I also added a shared storage folder where I want the outputs to also arrive.
Each trigger of XSLT should therefor produce same output file twice,
one to its local folder and one to shared folder.
The reason for wanting to have duplicate of document builds, is that I will merge some document and would like to perform the merge calling the storage folder.
A short illustration:
Production of doc-1:
/doc-1-folder/myDoc-1.xhtml
/shared/storage/myDoc-1.xhtml
Production of doc-2:
/doc-2-folder/myDoc-2.xhtml
/shared/storage/myDoc-2.xhtml
Would in storage generate:
/shared/storage/myDoc-1.xhtml
/shared/storage/myDoc-2.xhtml
Reading here:
https://www.saxonica.com/documentation10/index.html#!using-xsl/commandline,
it looks like one can only define one output file with the flag "-o".
Is it possible to define several output files? Or would I have to create several XSLT script to process the (identical) output twice?
If you want to do this all within XSLT, you could use the logic
<xsl:variable name="outputDoc">
... generate the output ...
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:result-document href="firstOutput.xml">
<xsl:copy-of select="$outputDoc"/>
</xsl:result-document>
<xsl:result-document href="secondOutput.xml">
<xsl:copy-of select="$outputDoc"/>
</xsl:result-document>
If you're using the Java API for Saxon (s9api) you could be a bit more adventurous and a bit more efficient by writing a ResultDocumentHandler that directs the output to a net.sf.saxon.s9api.TeeDestination that directs it to two separate places on the fly.

I have data stored in an XML file, that I want to use to create a website (HTML file). The following is a the format of the xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

I am following a tutorial on using SAX parser with JAVA in order to parse the XML file, where in the end I collect all the authors in a list or so. However I don't understand once I parse the XML file how will I use it in HTML in order to create a page where I display the names of the authors and so on.
PS: My XML file is large (2.3 GB). I am new to web development so I really appreciate your help.
As my experience. I use TemplateLoader from Hapax and use TemplateDataDictionary to set the variable to a dynamic value.

Goodluck.
I want to link a reference table, (given to me in XML format via link, from a remote server) into another XML file.
For example
<reference>
<listName>countries</listName>
<itemCount>191</itemCount>
<item type="Country" row="1">
<id>1104</id>
<name>TURKEY</name>
</item>
</reference> <!-- Added by edit -->
The thing is that every single item is in different XML, with different link. So I need to link them all and, (in a way) filter the information in a new XML, which to then import to Word Press.
If not XML to XML, then XML to JSON or CSV is ok. Or if there is an software to help me do this.
Thank you in advance.
The best way is to use some online tool where you can load data from URL i found one editor you can use that or use some similar online tool.

I have a folder of several hundred XML files that I would like to convert into a folder of HTML files. I've created an XSLT that works in w3schools.com's XSLT tester, but I'm not sure how to apply that stylesheet across hundreds of XML documents. My XML looks like this (and the only nodes I'm interested in are title, author, and lyrics):
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<song xmlns="http://openlyrics.info/namespace/2009/song" version="0.8" createdIn="OpenLP 2.0.1" modifiedIn="OpenLP 2.0.1" modifiedDate="2012-03-14T02:21:52">

A couple questions about this:
1) Might it be better to use XQuery since I'm only interested in extracting a few lines per XML file?
2) Regardless of XSLT/XQuery, how can I implement a solution that converts a folder of XML files (without manually editing each one to call upon the XSL stylesheet)? I'm running OS X 10.8.4.
Thanks in advance.
Just write your own shell script using the xsltproc command. This is what I used successfully for XSLT batch processing.
Or just open a shell, cd to the folder with the XML files and then enter the following two commands:
mkdir results
xsltproc -o results/ path/to/stylesheet.xslt *.xml
I think XQuery would be more convenient if you had all of your XML in a database, but on the filesystem XSLT may be simpler.
I would just use Saxon-PE, and invoke it from a shell script. You could also use Automator.
Dear friends,
We are developing healthcare app which will monitory patient data from remote and display the patient EcG in dynamic graphs is my requirement , basically I am new to XML and XSLT. so what I wanted to know how to transfer the xml EcG data into xslt so that then in linux xsltproc command can transfer xsl file into html file and I can view in browser.
Basic example I know but graphics like lines chat I am confusing how to do ?
please if any one knows let me know thanks in advance. any reference or any links or any example is also ok and great if any one shares.
You don't transfer your XML data to XSLT. With XSLT you can define a stylesheet which defines how to transform XML data (to HTML in your case). So you apply XSLT stylesheet to your XML data.
When you have your XSLT defined, you can use xsltproc like this:
xsltproc stylesheet.xsl myData.xml
You can start with this tutorial to get some idea how it works. (Click "Try it yourself" to see an example of an XML document, XSLT stylesheet and the result)
For graphics like bar chart, pie chart and so on you need java script help which would take your generated XML as input and pass some parameters to javascript which has the ability to produce graphics for you.

I just wrote an XSL-T file that converts some WSDL files into HTML documentation. Now I'm wondering whether I could use an processing-instruction like the following directly in the WSDL files:
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="./transform.xsl"?>
This works perfectly in any browser I've tested. But I'm curious whether XML processors that actually want to use the WSDL as service description (e.g. SOAP client libraries) would now also convert the document into HTML - which would lead to an unusable WSDL.
Does anyone know whether this is safe or if there's some standard for XML processors that defines how to handle the xml-stylesheet processing instruction?
