xsl:import

---

The <xsl:import> element is a top-level element that serves to import the contents of one stylesheet into another stylesheet. Generally speaking, the contents of the imported stylesheet have a lower import precedence than that of the importing stylesheet. This is in contrast to <xsl:include> where the contents of the included stylesheet have exactly the same precedence as the contents of the including stylesheet.

Syntax:

<xsl:import href=URI  /> 

Required Attributes:

href:

Specifies the URI of the stylesheet to import.

Optional Attributes: None.

Type: Top-level, must appear before any other child of <xsl:stylesheet> or <xsl:transform> in the importing stylesheet.

Defined: XSLT, section 2.6.2.

NS support: Netscape does not yet support import precedence, so it will behave just like <xsl:include>.
