Yes, you can merge two or more XML documents. You will usually use the xsl:copy and xsl:copy-of elements to accomplish this. The following link may be helpful to you: http://www.topxml.com/xsltStylesheets/xslt_XML_to_XML.asp[^]

are you sure about that? I don't see that in the link you provided. Last I checked (several years back) they had added the mechanism to the ( XSLT??? don't remember) standard but none of the engines had implemented it.

See Solution III: http://www.devguy.com/fp/XML/XSL/Merge/Example1/index.html[^] I think outputing multiple documents is still implementation dependant, however. -- modified at 21:50 Tuesday 7th August, 2007
