Jason:
That is very similar to what I have already done.. the question is
if we could intermingle vm macros and xsl in .vm file. such as in Example.vm
<xsl:stylesheet ....>
....
...
<xsl:template match="/">
#myInputBox(....)
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

The Turbine XSLT service works well. The documentation is a little
sparse, but here's a little code snippet from a screen class:
// Get your XML. I'm using a String, but
// but you could simply create a FileReader instead
String xmlSchema = getXMLSchema();
// This is just a filename. The location for the
// templates is defined in TurbineResources.properties
String xslTemplate = "MyTemplate.xsl";
// Set up a StringReader for the XML String:
Reader reader = new StringReader(xmlSchema);
// Send the XML and the XSL template to the transformer:
TurbineXSLTService xslt = new TurbineXSLTService();
xslt.init();
String sOutput = xslt.transform(xslTemplate, reader);
context.put("formOutput", sOutput);
I'm just writing the HTML output from the XSL transformation to a
String, and accessing it in the Velocity template via the Context. I'm
sure there are better ways to do this, but this is working just fine
(the XSL is generating HTML forms based on the contents of the XML).
