RE: [xsl] Are non-linear transformation possible?

[Jeff Beadle <Jbeadle at manh dot com>]

Hey Richard,

This works:

<xsl:template match="/">
   <results>
      <xsl:apply-templates />
   </results>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="results">
   <row>
	<xsl:apply-templates />
   </row>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="results/row">
   <xsl:copy-of select="field"/>
</xsl:template>

HTH,
Jeff

What I mean be this is can you convert a source document that looks like
this:

<allresults>
 <results>
  <row>
    <field>some data</field>
    <field>some data</field>
  </row>
  <row>
    <field>some data</field>
    <field>some data</field>
  </row>
 </results>
 <results>
  <row>
    <field>some data</field>
  </row>
  <row>
    <field>some data</field>
  </row>
 </results>
</allresults>  


into this:

<results>
  <row>
    <field>some data</field>
    <field>some data</field>
    <field>some data</field>
  </row>
  <row>
    <field>some data</field>
    <field>some data</field>
    <field>some data</field>
  </row>
</results>


In other words, I'd like to merge these 2 separate result sets into one
result set.

This seems like a basic thing to do with XSLT but I can't figure out the
logic for my transformation sheet.

Thanks,
Rich
