The generator would then give only the information how to get the content of the abstract and the name of the xsl. The sitemap would match on this:
<map:match pattern="abstract*-*">
<map:generate src="content-abstract{1}"/>
<map:transform src="stylesheets/{2}.xsl"/>
<map:serialize type="xml"/>
</map:match>
So every abstract is transformed separately and aggregated at the end to a "big thing".
Your original abstract pipeline I would change to:
<map:match pattern="abstractpage_*.html">
<map:generate src="getEveryMetaInfoFromDBAsXML.xsp"/>
<map:transform src="transformers/convertMetaInfo2XInclude.xsl"/>
<map:transform type="xinclude"/>
<map:transform src="stylesheets/maybeSomePostProcessing.xsl"/>
<map:serialize type="html"/>
</map:match>
So the whole processing is not a XSLT problem, but a solvable Cocoon problem. Is the propagated way an option? Or is your way already fixed?

I am not sure if this is a cocoon specific problem or solveable with XSL only. I have this problem.I am working on a CMS where non-programmers can feed articles to a db. Cocoon output those articles in different ways. The problematic view is the multi-article page. There abstracts of many different article types are displayed. As I want the system to be extensible - that means without one big pre-.made xslt - the user can write there own stylesheet for EVERY article. All they should have to do is save the xsl and write its path to the db. As I have this multi-article view I would need to dynmically merge all assigned xslt to one sytlesheet that could be a cocoon transformer in my pipeline: SITEMAP .... <map:match pattern="abstractpage_*.html"> <map:generate src="getEverythingFromDBAsXML.xsp"/> ...? MAGIC COMPONENT ? <map:transform src="dynamicallyGenerated.xsl"/> <map:serialize type="html"/> </map:match> .... GENERATOR: ... <PAGE> <ABSTRACT nr="1" styleMeWith="first.xsl"> ... </ABSTRACT> ... <ABSTRACT nr="5 styleMeWith="fifth.xsl ... </ABSTRACT> .. </PAGE> Can you imagine a solution to this problem. Maybe with meta-stylesheets? Thanks in advance! Rob
