I am trying to use the process commands to create an interactive function that runs an XSL transformation on the whole of the currently edited document. However, I can't quite do it because it is not possible to paste the transformation results back into the document.
It seems that it is in general not possible to paste over the document root element. This can be tested as follows: 1 Open a document 2 Select the root element 3 Copy 4 Paste The status of the document does NOT change to "modified". I tried inserting a "delete force" statement before my paste, but it doesn't help. I also tried modifying my transformation to output only first-level children, and selecting all children of the root before pasting, but this doesn't work either - I think because two of the child elements are external entity references. I could run two transformations, one to generate the elements before the external entities, and one to generate the elements after, then paste in the before and after segments separately. This seems a bit clunky, though. Is there a better way around it? Best regards -------------- Kevin Flynn Birdstep Technology www.birdstep.com Mobile: +47 93433942
