Subject: RE: [xsl] xslt a mixed html and xml file



... I want to apply a style sheet that outputs the HTML as it 
is but also
applies templates to the custom bits.

...but I need to add in this WITHOUT changing the XML:

<xsl:template match="link">
      <a href="<xsl:value-of select="href" />">
              <xsl:value-of select="innerHTML" />
      </a>
</xsl:template>

Hoping there's a simple and elegant solution, Stephen


There is indeed. Use the identity template as your default template rule:

<xsl:template match="*">
  <xsl:copy>
  <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
  <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

and then supplement it with template rules like yours above that treat
particular elements differently.
