Loading data from a text file

[simonchristieis]

Can I load text from a text file using xslt ?

kinda like this:

<xsl:variable name="test">
<xsl:value-of select="document('C:\Text.txt')"/>
</xsl:variable>

<xsl:value-of select="$test"/>

Anyone got any ideas ?

Thanks in advance

You've to use platform-dependent extension functions. Native xslt function?... maybe not at the moment.

Thanks.

Thats what I thought. Just wondering if anyone had any nifty hacks, did I say hacks? I meant handy workarounds.

Do you mean workarounds but within the xslt recommendation? or do you mean with extension? If former, I can't help as mentioned.
