Subject: Re: [xsl] XSLT Processor - root node template & version
question
Q1: Does it matter (speed wise or best practice)
if a template is defined for the root element?
If you don't provide one, XSLT's default template should be applied. That
may or may not do what you want, and may or may not be the fastest
solution depending on where you want to start _real_ processing.
Q2: Since the XSLT 1.1 never made it past WD status
is there any gain in specifying it? I use Xalan-j.
Nope. 1.1 is dead; long live 2.0.
Some of 1.1's features made it into the XSLT 2.0 working draft. Xalan is
starting to prototype that version (on a branch, not in the main-line
development), so if you Really Need those and are willing to use highly
experimental code you could try that and see whether we've gotten to the
stuff you want...
