Hello, I suppose this is the kind of email that possibly reflects a deep
misunderstanding of the basic principles on which Cocoon relies. If that is
the case, just warn me. ;)
The simple question is:
Using Cocoon (possibly through the sitemap), how do I process a XML file
that combines two different DTDs with two *separate* XSLT transforms? Or
even using a single combined DTD, in which but a part of it goes to one XSLT
file and part is processed by another XSLT file.
---
The complete question (with examples) is:
Suppose I have a very simple site DTD:
<site>
<people>
<person>
[whatever]
</person>
</people>
</site>
And suppose I have a XSLT that transforms into a complete HTML page, like:
<html><body>
<ul>
<li>[whatever]</li>
</ul>
</body></html>
OK. Now suppose that I have another DTD that defines a specific class of
person, a teacher, that I want to mantain separately:
<teacher>
<name>John S.</name>
<class>Biology</class>
</teacher>
And I have a standard XSLT that transforms this into a HTML fragment, like:
<p><b>Name:</b> John S.</p>
<p><b>Class:</b> Biology</p>.
Now I have a XML file like this, combining both DTDs:
<page>
<people>
<person>
<!-- this using is the teacher DTD -->
<teacher>
<name>John S.</name>
<class>Biology</class>
</teacher>
<!-- this using is the teacher DTD -->
</person>
</people>
</page>
Naturally, I want to generate a complete HTML of the above output using both
transformations.
I also want to keep both XSLT files separate and independent, since I may
want to reuse the XSLT and DTD for the teacher on other parts of my site and
supporting systems.
I really want to do this at the sitemap level on Cocoon. Is there any way
to do this? Maybe dinamically merging both XSLT files?
