The
patients.xml
file defines a root element called
patients
. It has three
nested
patient
elements. The
patient
elements contain three pieces of data:
•
Patient identifier, provided as the
id
attribute of the
patient
element
•
Patient name, provided as the
name
subelement
•
Patient diagnosis, provided as the
diagnosis
subelement
The transformation XSL document (
patients.xsl
) is quite small as well, and it
simply maps the patient data to a more user-readable HTML format using XSL:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/
Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="html"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
