Is there a way in XSL to test the current node being an
element or attribute?
I'm using a copy template (recursively) that matches
"@*|node()" and would like to decide what to do
(<xsl:choose>) depending on the text content of the current
node (nodes with arbitrary names, so no fix testing possible!).
It would be better to have separate template rules for elements and
attributes, rather than using one rule that then does an <xsl:choose>.
The same idea came to me an hour ago. I think, it will be the only
clean solution.
Thanks for your advice!
To point it out: I have to manipulate the contents of the
nodes and therefor I apply <xsl:element name="{name()}"> and
<xsl:attribute name="{name()}"> on these specific nodes
(perhaps a bad approach?).
Why can't you just use <xsl:copy>, which does the same thing (modulo
copying of namespace nodes)?
See my reply on "superfluous namespace declarations..."
