dbhtml-include_href — Copies an external well-formed HTML/XML file into current doc
<?dbhtml-include href="URI
"?>
Use the <?dbhtml-include href?>
PI anywhere in a
document to cause the contents of the file referenced by the
href
pseudo-attribute to be copied/inserted “as
is” into your HTML output at the point in document order
where the PI occurs in the source.
The referenced file may contain plain text (as long as
it is “wrapped” in an html
element — see the
note below) or markup in any arbitrary vocabulary,
including HTML — but it must conform to XML
well-formedness constraints (because the feature in XSLT
1.0 for opening external files, the
document()
function, can only handle
files that meet XML well-formedness constraints).
Among other things, XML well-formedness constraints
require a document to have a single root
element. So if the content you want to
include is plain text or is markup that does
not have a single root element,
wrap the content in an
html
element. The stylesheets will
strip out that surrounding html
“wrapper” when
they find it, leaving just the content you want to
insert.
URI
"Specifies the URI for the file to include; the URI
can be, for example, a remote http:
URI, or a local filesystem file:
