Re: Choosing specific XML node with XSL

Try this (just tested on Saxon 8):

  <xsl:template match="parent/text()">
    <xsl:value-of select="."/>
  </xsl:template>
 
  <xsl:template match="child1|child2"/>

Subject
[xsl] Choosing specific XML node with XSL






Hi,
I am dealing with some dynamically generated XML and ran into some XSL
parsing issues.

The XML is something like this:

<parent>this is parent text
                 <child1><child2>this is child text</child2></child1> 
</parent>

I want the text of <parent> only, but
<xsl:value-of select = "//parent/"/>  returns 'this is parent text this is
child text'.

How can I get only the text of <parent> tag and not the <child1><child2>
tag.

Thanks in advance,
Hiral
