Hello guys, I need to be able to include xml chunks from several entity xml files into a a master one that is supposed to be shown to users. Those users should be able to edit the final xml file but when doing so they should be actually updating the chunks. With an example: books.xml -------------- <books> <book isbn="foo" author="bar"/> ..... </books> bookstores.xml --------------------- <bookstores> <bookstore> <book isbn="foo" author="bar"/> ........... </bookstore> </bookstores> libraries.xml --------------------- <libraries> <library> <book isbn="foo" author="bar"/> ........... </library> </libraries> or <libraries> A given user updating now libraries realize the author for isbn "foo" is not "bar" but "xar" so whenever he updates libraries he should actually be updating books.xml. I am just trying to reuse any work already done about this problem. I can use XInclude to get the books chunks into the libraries and bookstores files. I can use XSLT to present a pretty form to the user and then whenever the user hits submit for a change I can use XUpdate if I maintain somewhere the XInclude rules just to know what to update but too much custom code for something that maybe is already integrated in eXist or is part of a solution based on eXist. Generation of the GUI to edit should be done using a W3C schema and I am wondering if something is not also built within eXist for this matter. Could anyone point me to a good direction here? Any help highly appeciated. Thanks to you all, Nestor Urquiza __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
