Leaving aside the question of the appropriateness of frames for output in a
browser for a time, I have a template that successfully creates a set of
frames in a web page and outputs the content of two xml documents to those
frames. (See below.)
However, what I would like to do is "replace" the hard coded page references
with something like
<xsl:apply-templates select="..."/>
so that the I could, for example, use the xsl file to create a table of
contents from "section" the section tags in one frame, while the complete
content of the file would be presented in the other frame.
The essential point of this is to render the same content in different ways
into multiple frames.
If someone could suggest an approach to this, I would appreciate it.
If this idea is "wacko", I would be happy to consider completely different
methods. Thanks.
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<head>
<title>Books and Stuff</title>
</head>
<frameset rows="80%,20%">
<frameset cols="30%,70%">
<frame src="frame1.xml"/>
<frame src="frame2.xml"/>
</frameset>
<frame src="OSCeras.jpg"/>
<noframes>
<body>
<xsl:apply-templates select="books"/>
</body>
</noframes>
</frameset>
</html>
</xsl:template>
