Going by your requirement, you can : a) Generate a big XML file on the fly, using xmltask. - Take one xml file and copy it into the BIG.xml , and for all other xml files, copy all the data excluding their root inside the root element of BIG.xml.
This link can help you with xpath: http://www.zvon.org/xxl/XPathTutorial/General/examples.html b) Use that, to generate the html file. c) Discard that big XML file. hope it help. ~ramnish. -----Original Message----- From: Douglas Lochart [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 29 July 2005 16:09 To: Ant Users List Subject: Re: XSLT - Many Input One Output A non ANT solution to your problem may be to dynamically create a single XML file that simply includes the other xml files. Then you pass the single xml file to the processor. This requires using xi:include. example: <document-root xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2003/XInclude";> <xi:include href="file1.xml"/> <xi:include href="file2.xml"/> etc... </document-rrot> good luck Doug KrustyDerClown wrote: > Hello, > > thx for the link.
