Hi Johannes, You should be able to use the document() function to interrogate the contents of an external XML file. It is also a good idea to use doc-available() first to check for the existence of the file and build the tree in memory.

Now I want to make a distinction. Some values should be in a text field and some values should be displayed only. Which nodes should be displayed and which not is stored in a persitent xml file. What I thought of, is something like this: <xsl:for-each select="*"> <td> <xsl:if test="CurrentNodeIsContentOfExampleNodeOfPersitentXmlFile')"> <input type="text" value="{current()}" name="{name()}"/> </xsl:if> </td> </xsl:for-each > How can I do this? Is this possible? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.bbc.co.uk/ This e-mail (and any attachments) is confidential and may contain personal views which are not the views of the BBC unless specifically stated.
