Hi

Has anyone any ideas as to the best way to include an existing XML file into a parent XML file? I'm not sure which is the best way to achieve this with FileMaker after looking at xsl:import, xsl:include, xi:include, defining an entity, etc!!

What I'm trying to achieve is to run one script in FileMaker that generates an XML file (parent.xml) that inserts the content of existing xml file/s (child.xml) into the final document. The structure needs to be something along the lines of...






One

Two

Three



*Child data elements need to be inserted from existing file child.xml*



One

Two

Three











I've got FileMaker and xsl producing the required xml files OK. The parent xsl uses FMDSORESULT and begins with the following:




<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>



	xmlns:xsl='http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform'

	xmlns:fm="http://www.filemaker.com/fmpdsoresult"

	exclude-result-prefixes="fm">

 	

indent='yes' method='xml' />

The template then sucessfully exports the various FileMaker fields as XML.

Any ideas and help very much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
