RE: creating new elements in XML when performing an XML to XML transformation

2004-02-10 15:38:42

<xsl:template match="@*|node()">

   <xsl:copy>
     <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
   </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>


I'm able to grab the elements that I want to change, but what 
do I do if I want to create new elements below the root element?


Just add another template rule:

<xsl:template match="/*">    
     <xsl:copy>
       <xsl:apply-templates select="@*"/>
       <new-element/>
       <xsl:apply-templates select="node()"/>
     </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

Note that the attributes must be output before any child elements.
