RE: removing nodes according to attibute value

2005-11-01 15:55:13

Michael Kay:

Start with an identity template that copies everything:

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

  Or matching "node()" if you want to copy everything, isn't it?

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


Your version will copy comments and processing instructions, mine won't.
Both of them copy text nodes: yours explicitly, mine by relying on the
built-in template rules. So they're different, but I'm not sure the
difference is relevant to the problem.
