[vox-tech] complex XML to CSV via XSLT

[Dylan Beaudette]

Hi,

I have an XML file generated via PHP, and containing the contents of several 
linked tables from a relational database. I would like to generalize some 
sample XSLT documents to convert the entire file into a sequence of CSV 
files. The XML file will essentially be exploded back into a set of CSV 
files, one for each of the original tables. The idea would be to create a 
couple XSLT files for converting the XML format into several possible output 
formats. 

Attached is the XML file, as well as two XSLT files. I suppose that I could 
loop over the tables of interest, and apply separate XSLT files to the 
original XML-- saving to different output files each time. It would be more 
convenient to have all of that logic embedded in the XSLT file-- if possible.

Any ideas?

Cheers,
Dylan
