Question

I have 2 xml files and I want to read data from both files in one xsl transformation. I try to read the data from the second file using the document() function, but it does not return any value.

XSL template

<xsl:template name="BuildingList" match="building">
    <xsl:variable name="allBuildings" select="document('buildings.xml')/buildings"/>
    <xsl:value-of select="$allBuildings" />
</xsl:template>

Buildings.xml structure

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1251"?>
<buildings>
    <building id="First">
        <title>Some title</title>
    </building>
</buildings>

How can I get the content in order to manipulate it?

EDIT:
All three files are in the same directory. I tried to process the transformation with the following two jQuery plugins:

• Transform
• xsltParser

With either of them the transformation of more than one file is not working.

Using the pluings:

function LoadContent(pageName)
        {
            var currentPage = pageName+ '.xsl';

            $.transform({el:"#information",xml:"pages.xml",xsl:currentPage});

            /*$('#information').xsltParser({
                xml:  'pages.xml',
                xslt: currentPage,

                onStart: function() {
                    //$('#log').append('Preparing... ');
                },
                onSend: function(url) {
                    //$('#log').append('Requesting ' + url + '... ');
                },
                onComplete: function() {
                    //$('#log').append('Done!');
                }
            });*/
        }

Answer 1

I found out that document() is not supported in client-side transformation as stated here
