Hi Jag,
Thanks for the post. The above stylesheet doesn't quite do it. It
drops the sectionnumber and sectiontext from the output. I should also
mention the reason I was using descendant-or-self:: in each of the
templates above is because <change> can be wrapped around any of the
elements, not just the descendants of <section>.
I'm still rather confused by the reason that <xsl:apply-templates
select="*[not(descendant-or-self::sectionnumber or
descendant-or-self::sectiontext)]"/> would not match the <change>
element. I wonder if you could shed any light on this?
Thanks,
Spencer

For this kind of solutions, if you use descendant:: or
descendant-or-self:: axes, it will match many elements under the

In your xsl,
under <xsl:template match="section">,
the
<xsl:apply-templates select="*[not(descendant-or-self::sectionnumber
or descendant-or-self::sectiontext)]"/>
is not matching the <change> element,
It can be resolved by using child::elementName axes or just using elementName.
Try the below xsl:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:variable name="cr">
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="tab">
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:template match="/">
<root>
<xsl:value-of select="$cr"/>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</root>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="section">
<HED2>Section <xsl:apply-templates select="sectionnumber"/>
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
<xsl:apply-templates select="sectiontext"/>
</HED2>
<xsl:value-of select="$cr"/>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="sectionnumber">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="sectiontext">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="subsection">
<HED3>
<xsl:apply-templates select="subsectionnumber"/>
<xsl:value-of select="$tab"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="subsectiontext"/>
</HED3>
<xsl:value-of select="$cr"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="*[not(self::subsectionnumber or
self::subsectiontext)]"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="subsectionnumber">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="subsectiontext">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="article">
<HED4>
<xsl:apply-templates select="articlenumber"/>
<xsl:value-of select="$tab"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="articletext"/>
</HED4>
<xsl:value-of select="$cr"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="*[not(self::articlenumber or
self::articletext)]"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="articlenumber">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="articletext">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="change">
<xsl:apply-templates select="*[not(self::sectionnumber or
self::sectiontext)]"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Kind Regards,
Jagdishwar B.
