Hey Devon:

I'm not clear exactly what you want to do... If your PHP documents are
in fact well-formed XML documents, then you can transform them just like
any other XML document.

What kind of files do you want to generate?

Subject:  PHP included as a PI?

Hi,

I've been on this list a while and reading a lot, but haven't said
anything 
yet. So, hello, I'm Devon. Anyway, on to my question...


I have some old PHP files which are perfect XML, and would like to
generate 
files from them without putting them on a server.

So I'm wondering if there's any XSLT processors/engines that will treat
any 
PHP code in the XML file as a PI, and use PHP to execute it. I'm
thinking 
that since PHP can be included in a file just like any PI  "<?php foo();

?>", and PHP can be executed on the command line, it should be possible
to 
do this. I don't thinking piping would work for this, would it (I'm
using 
Windows)? Even if it did, I'd like to do the transforming & php
execution in 
a more simplified way.



Devon
