Hi all

I am trying to combine 2 or more xmls having same tags to a single xml.
Following is my xml:
<root>
    <data>
        <row>
            <id>1</id>
            <address>368 hbs</address>
            <image>1.jpg</image>
        </row>
        <row>
            <id>1</id>
            <address>368 hbs</address>
            <image>2.jpg</image>
        </row>
        <row>
            <id>2</id>
            <address>407 hbs</address>
            <image>1.jpg</image>
        </row>
    </data>
</root>

I want it to be grouped by id. Like first and second row (having same id) get combine to form one xml etc....

Please help.....

Thanks
Sac

5 hours before your post someone else asked about grouping: check the answer to that post.

If you are producing multiple output documents you will want to use XSLT 2.0 with its xsl:result-document instruction.

<xsl:for-each-group select="row" group-by="id">
  <xsl:result-document href="{current-grouping-key()}.xml">
    <xsl:copy-of select="current-group()"/>
  </xsl:result-document>
</xsl:for-each-group>

Hi

Thanks for the help.

I have tried various ways but everytime I try xslt 2.0 my browser says "Error during XSLT transformation: XSLT transformation failed."

So it may be the case that I have to stick with xslt 1.0. Any idea?

Thanks
Sac

Before working with XSL 2.0 be aware either it supports for your installed xslt processor. I am not sure about the required xslt processor / software to work with XSLT 2.0. But i am sure about if you r using with Xalan-C++ you dont have support for XSL2.0...

None of the browsers yet support XSLT 2.0 unfortunately.

There's no point writing XSLT 2.0 code unless you have an XSLT 2.0 processor.
