Transform XML with multiple XSL files

Question

I have some XML that I\'d like to transform into HTML using a number of XSL files. These XSL files are all related through xsl:import and xsl:include statements, and all require

I would recommend using jquery to import and style the XML.

Something like this would allow you to import the XML whenever a function is called (a function linked to a keypress or a refresh button or even a timer.)

$.ajax({
    type: "GET",
    url: "FILENAME.xml",
    dataType: "xml",
    success: function(xml) {
        $(xml).find('site').each(function(){ //finds parent node
            var id = $(this).attr('id'); //id of parent node
            var title= $(this).find('title').text();  //finds title node within parent node
            var url = $(this).find('url').text(); //finds URL node within parent node
            var description = $(this).find('descr').text(); //etc...
            var img = $(this).find('img').text(); //etc...

            // Creates div with id of parent node (for individual styling)
            $('
')
                .addClass('add a div class')
            //sets css of div
                .css({set css})
            // Sets the inner HTML of this XML allocated div to hyperlinked 'title' with 'description' and an 'img'
                .html(''+title+''+description+'')                  
            // Append the newly created element to body
                .appendTo('#holder');
    }
    }
})

And the XML would look something like this:

 http://blah.com
 imgs/image1.png
 this is a description
 



 http://filler.com
 imgs/image2.jpg
 this is another description
 

Of course instead of importing to a div you could import the XML to a table or any other type of HTML element.
