Description

Before using any of the functions below please remember to import the module namespace:

import module namespace xslt = "http://www.zorba-xquery.com/modules/languages/xslt";

This module provides XSLT 1.0 transformation functionality.

For details on XSLT see XSLT 1.0 specification.

This module implements the invoking of an XSLT transformation from XQuery described in Michael Kay's proposal.

Example:

import module namespace
        xslt = "http://www.zorba-xquery.com/modules/languages/xslt";
 let $source :=
     <catalog>
         <cd>
           <title>Empire Burlesque</title>
           <artist>Bob Dylan</artist>
           <country>USA</country>
           <company>Columbia</company>
           <price>10.90</price>
           <year>1985</year>
         </cd>
         <cd>
           <title>Hide your heart</title>
           <artist>Bonnie Tyler</artist>
           <country>UK</country>
           <company>CBS Records</company>
           <price>9.90</price>
           <year>1988</year>
         </cd>
     </catalog>
 let $stylesheet :=
   <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
       xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
     <xsl:template match="/">
       <html>
       <body>
       <h2>Music Collection&lt;/h2>
         <table border="1">
           <tr bgcolor="lightblue">
             <th>Title&lt;/th>
             <th>Artist&lt;/th>
           </tr>
           <xsl:for-each select="catalog/cd">
            <tr>
              <td>&lt;xsl:value-of select="title"/></td>
              <td>&lt;xsl:value-of select="artist"/></td>
           </tr>
           </xsl:for-each>
         </table>
       </body>
       </html>
     </xsl:template>
   </xsl:stylesheet>
 return
   xslt:transform( $source, $stylesheet)
