Hi,
You can start with a recursive copy template and add a rule to check if
the item shold be copied or not. Assuming the document 2 is named
ids.xml then you need a stylesheet like below
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="node()|@*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="node()|@*"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="item">
<xsl:if test="id=document('ids.xml')/ids/id">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="node()|@*"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Best Regards,
George
