RSS
Hi, I want to call a RSS feed. Is it possible for the style sheet to use the XML document it is styling and the XML RSS feed. How would I set up my sitemap to do this? And how would I call the two different XML files in my style sheet? Thanks, Richard.

I understand (please try to formulate your exact question better in the future) that you want to use an RSS feed as a source. Your sitemap should consider something like this: map:match pattern=myfeed.html map:generate src=http://host/myfeed.rss/ map:transform src=mystylesheet.xsl/ map:serialize/ /map:match when accessing this pipeline using http://host/cocoon/myfeed.html, Cocoon will read the RSS feed and apply the mystylesheet.xsl onto it, producing HTML (if that's what the stylesheet has been designed for). I've recently written a (hopefully) layman's intro into Cocoon as a paper for a conference, maybe some of it makes sense to you: http://www.idealliance.org/europe/03/call/xmlpapers/02-01-05.14/.02-01-05.html In case you want to really use the content of the RSS feed _inside_ your XSLT stylesheet (as a variable perhaps), you should use the XSLT document() function, for which you also can specify an URL as a source. But all in all, since you have choosen for Cocoon, you might as well use Cocoon aggregation or the various IncludeTransformers instead.

Re: RSS
see http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#document
xsl:apply-templates
select=document('http://news.newsfeedsource.com/newsfeed.rss')/*/
or something like that.
also consider using XIncludeTransformer or CIncludeTransformer:
document

xi:include xmlns:xi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude; href=http://

map:generate src=document.xml/
map:transform type=xinclude/
map:transform type=xsl src=mystylesheet.xsl/
map:serialize/

RE: RSS
Richard, I just read about a feature that might be helpful to you. The discussion of Content Aggregation in Cocoon: Building XML Applications (Matthew Langham, Carsten Ziegeler; New Riders Pub; ISBN : 0-7357-1235-2) discusses a way to aggregate multiple generators into a single XML document, on the fly, that can then be transformed using a style sheet. It uses, among other tags, the map:aggregate tag. I'm just a beginner at Cocoon, so it may not be the best way to do it, and it's probably not the only way to do it. Maybe others can provide alternate methods. I want to call a RSS feed. Is it possible for the style sheet to use the XML document it is styling and the XML RSS feed.

Re: Dynamically generate RSS feed for Cocoon portal from XML files
Thanks Jens and Jeff ! Itried the XPathDirectoryGenerator. Sitemap fragment: ... map:match pattern=kno-index map:generate type=xpathdirectory src=C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\Projects\XML\KNO\#/azkno:knowledgeobject/dc:title/ map:serialize type=xml/ /map:match ... Which yields an XML file with the current fragment: ... dir:file name=microdialysis1.xml lastModified=1046298926956 date=26/02/03 22:35 size=9449 dir:xpath docid=microdialysis1.xml query=/azkno:knowledgeobject/dc:title / /dir:file ... Obviously this has produced XML output identifying files that comply having this tag but the query wasn't executed, i.e. I haven't got the content of this tag (which I need). Any Ideas ??

Re: Dynamically generate RSS feed for Cocoon portal from XML files
Hi, I would like to dynamically generate an RSS feed from currently available XML files in a folder on my webserver to be displayed in the Cocoon portal. I did that some days ago ... This was my approach: 1. Use the directory generator to generate the list of files in your folder 2. Transform the file list to cinclude statements 3. Transform the the list with the cinclude transformer 4. Apply a nice xsl wich selects the stuff you want to have in your rss feed ;-) You pipeline will look like this: map:match pattern=foobar map:generate type=dir src=your/dir// map:transform src=dir2cinclude.xsl/ map:transform type=cinclude/ map:transform src=cinclude2rss.xsl/ map:serialize type=xml/ /map:match don't know if it's the best way, but it simply works maybe there are some performance problems if you have many and/or large files kind regards Jens Maukisch - sn AG netBank solutions Klingenderstr. 5mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] D-33100 Paderborn http://www.s-und-n.de - CeBIT 2003 * Hannover * 12.-19.3.2003 Besuchen Sie uns auf dem Stand der Software AG Halle 18 EG * Bank-Finanz-Systeme * Stand A24.15 - - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
