insert xml into a node of parent xslt
Hi all,
Please consider the following two xsl stylesheets:
parent.xslt
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="html" omit-xml-declaration="yes"
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<head>
<title>Some page</title>
<!-- How do I insert content here from child.xslt? -->
</head>
<body>
<xsl:call-template name="HtmlBodyContent" />
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
and child.xslt
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="html" omit-xml-declaration="yes"
<xsl:include href="parent.xslt" />
<!--
But how can I insert content in the html head in the parent.xslt from here?
or from somewhere else in this child.xslt
-->
<xsl:template name="HtmlBodyContent">
Body content goes here
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
When reasoning top down ( from parent to child ) there is no problem. A child.xslt must implement a template named HtmlBodyContent and all is well. Also going deeper than one level is no problem.
However when reversing the direction ( from child to parent ) I don't see how I can insert content into a node that is contained in a parent or ansestor stylesheet.
Please check my stylesheets and look for the comments in it, it should help explain what I need to do.
Working from child to ansestor is important because some files have multiple levels and each level needs to be able to add to the html head ( to add script blocks )
Any ideas,
Kind regards

Could you please elaborate on this idea a bit more with an example of 3 levels?
parent.xslt, child.xslt and grandchild.xslt.
both child.xslt and grandchild.xslt should be able to add content to the html head.
kind regards
