Re: Strict sequential identity rule?

Hi Dimitre,

Can you at least confirm that you intended to put a "/" in the match pattern? I'm tempted to spend a long time on this if I know there's still a riddle to be solved. :-)

Thanks,
Evan

Hi,
I think that trying to answer the following question can be interesting and
useful for the members of our community.

Is the following statement true or false:

"The transformation below is an identity transformation":

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
        <xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>
        <xsl:template match="@* | node()">
                <xsl:copy>
                        <xsl:apply-templates select="@*"/>
                        <xsl:apply-templates select="node()[1]"/>
                </xsl:copy>
                <xsl:apply-templates select="following-sibling::node()[1]"/>
        </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
