OK, that's fine:
<xsl:template match="xdm:field"/> <!-- this is the empty template -->
But how can I extend this concept to exclude not just the unwanted <field>
elements, but ANY element OTHER THAN those I need to render?
For the purpose, I thought a declaration like the following:
<xsl:template match="node()"/>
that should (in my hope!) exclude any rendering for all the non-root
elements, at the same time (due to the template priority algorithm (XSLT 1.0
Specification, § 5.5, http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#conflict)) allowing the
correct render of the wanted elements:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0" xmlns:xdm="http://www.aaa.it/consulta/xdmModel";>
<xsl:template match="node()"/> <!-- empty template for all the non-root
nodes -->
<xsl:template match="xdm:fields">
<map font-family="Courier" font-size="10pt" height="1" x-unit="in/10"
y-unit="in/6">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</map>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="xdm:field[(_at_)name='CSBFT242']">
<label x="20" y="56" width="12">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</label>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
sadly, this syntax doesn't work at all: it seems to keep the highest
priority to the empty template, ignoring any else (the result is an empty
xml).
You know: I haven't grasped the intricacies of XSLT semantics yet!
Thanks for your help.

Hi Stefano,
The 'extra' text inserted:
1
2003-12-18
Is because you used <xsl:apply-templates/> in the "xdm:fields"
template, so the processor process all his childs, this is:
<field name="CSBFT242">FATTURA DI VENDITA</field>
<field name="CSBFT009">1</field>
<field name="CSBFT010">2003-12-18</field>
For the first "xdm:field" there is no problem because you defined a
template for that, but for the other 2 child you didn't defined any
template, then the processor apply his default template, wich in most
cases the built-in template is to output the text contained in an
element.
You could "delete" the default template simply defining an empty a
template for the <xdm:field> elements, and the template matching
"xdm:field[(_at_)name='CSBFT242']" will still work.
Something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0" xmlns:xdm="http://www.aaa.it/consulta/xdmModel";>
<xsl:template match="xdm:fields">
<map font-family="Courier" font-size="10pt" height="1" x-unit="in/10"
y-unit="in/6">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</map>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="xdm:field"/> <!-- this is the empty template -->
<xsl:template match="xdm:field[(_at_)name='CSBFT242']">
<label x="20" y="56" width="12">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</label>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Bye.
Francesco.
PD:Scusa il mio inglese, fa abbastanza pena :)

Hi all,
I tried to render this xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<documents xmlns="http://www.aaa.it/consulta/xdmModel";>
<document id="2003722011924">
<header>
<caption>Fattura 1924/2003 di AAAAAA SpA</caption>
</header>
<body format="pdf" base="fatture/">
<pages>
<page template="FTNORM.pdf">
<fields>
<field name="CSBFT242">FATTURA DI VENDITA</field>
<field name="CSBFT009">1</field>
<field name="CSBFT010">2003-12-18</field>
</fields>
</page>
</pages>
</body>
</document>
</documents>
transforming it with this ridiculous XSLT stylesheet:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0" xmlns:xdm="http://www.aaa.it/consulta/xdmModel";>
<xsl:template match="xdm:fields">
<map font-family="Courier" font-size="10pt" height="1" x-unit="in/10"
y-unit="in/6">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</map>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="xdm:field[(_at_)name='CSBFT242']">
<label x="20" y="56" width="12">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</label>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
but the result was quite horrific:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
Fattura 1924/2003 di AAAAAA SpA
<map font-family="Courier" font-size="10pt" height="1" x-unit="in/10"
y-unit="in/6" xmlns:xdm="http://www.aaa.it/consulta/xdmModel";>
<label x="20" y="56" width="12">FATTURA DI VENDITA</label>
1
2003-12-18
</map>
As you can see, the core transformation is right, but the XSLT processor
inserted also all the unwanted text node values!
I checked all the above code, but I'm really puzzled.
What's wrong in my stylesheet?
Many thanks
Stefano
