Maybe it already matches your needs, but I think it's better to use


That is the behaviour I was looking for, however I see your point.

xsl:template match="photo/*[normalize-space()]"


To make it more obvious to anyone else developing this template, I ended
up with this.

<xsl:apply-templates
select="/album/photos/photo/*[count(descendant::node())=0]" />

You don't need to count the *descendants*, childs are enough.

<xsl:apply-templates select="/album/photos/photo/*[count(child::node())=0]"/>

You don't need to *count* the childs, simply testing if there is any is enough (child axis is implicit, you can remove 'child::', if you want):

<xsl:apply-templates select="/album/photos/photo/*[not(node())]"/>

<xsl:template match="photo/*[normalize-space(text())!='']">

!='' is implicit, you can remove it if you want.

<xsl:template match="photo/*[normalize-space(text())]">

Joerg
