Generate Multiple Output Documents with XSLT 2.0
Unlike XSLT 1.0, XSLT 2.0 allows you to produce more than one result tree from a single transformation.
XSLT 2.0 has added the
functionality to serialize more than one result tree when performing
a single transformation with the new
result-document element. The stylesheet in this
hack will show you how to produce four result documents from one
source document.
The result-document.xsl stylesheet produces four result trees based on time.xml. The default result tree is output as text, and the remaining three are output as XML, HTML, and XHTML, respectively. The stylesheet is listed in Example 3-28.
