I'm authoring API user documentation using GitHub pages (adocs) and need to include HTML content that is dynamically rendered from XML source docs located within the GitHub repository. This technique will ensure that the document content is always current - it auto-generates whenever the Developer updates the XML source code. Is there a way to use a passthrough block or other technique to make this reality?
For reference, the following code is how I currently render the XML in an HTML document. Not sure if this is applicable, but the xsl document parses the XML file and transforms the data into an HTML table and then displays it in a browser.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
…
</head>
<body>
<div class="content">
<script language="javascript">
// Load XML
var xml = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
xml.async = false
xml.load("fieldParams/ReqParams.xml")
// Load the XSL
var xsl = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
xsl.async = false
xsl.load("xsl.xsl")
// Transform
document.write(xml.transformNode(xsl))
</script></div>
</body>
</html>
