Re: Process some elements, but not others...

I've been thinking recently about using namespaces to solve this, well, my situation is more complex but it seems to be a good tool to use (except it's not working for me right now, but I'm sure that's my fault) e.g.,

<myelement>
    <p>This is <ref xmlns="foobar">the</ref> text node</p>
</myelement>

--------------------

<xsl:stylesheet  xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
  xmlns:foobar="foobar"  version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="foobar:ref">
  <!--whatever-->
</xsl:template>

it's probably overkill for your example but I think it's a more flexible solution in the long run?

Hi,

I have an xml document whose elements contain html as in the following example:

<myelement>
    <p>This is <ref>the</ref> text node</p>
</myelement>

What I'd like to be able to do is transform just the ref element and copy all the others.

Any suggestions? The last time I asked a question here everyone was _very_ helpful and I'm very appreciative so thanks!
