Subject: [xsl] Root node with attributes


Hello,

I'm tring to understand where is my error and a solution for this problem:
When the root node conatins attributes the templates are not applied,
If the root node don't contain the attributes the templates are
applied.
I didn't understand wath is the right way to apply a template in a
root node with attributes.

Any suggestion are welcome.

Thanks and sorry for my english

Stylesheet

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
    version="2.0">

    <xsl:output method="xml" />

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


     <!-- Transform a string to a Array -->
    <xsl:template match="String">
            <xsl:message>Convert String</xsl:message>
            <Array name="{(_at_)name}">
                    <xsl:for-each select="string-to-codepoints(@value)">
                            <ArrayData type="UBYTE" value="{.}"/>
                    </xsl:for-each>
                    <ArrayData type="UBYTE" value="0"/>
            </Array>
    </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Input file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Assembly xmlns="http://nxtassembler.sourceforge.net/NXT/AsXML.xsd";>
    <Dataspace>
            <Data name="a" type="ULONG" value="1"/>
            <String name="ciao" value="Hello!" />
    </Dataspace>
</Assembly>

Te aspected result is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Assembly xmlns="http://nxtassembler.sourceforge.net/NXT/AsXML.xsd";>
    <Dataspace>
<Data name="a" type="ULONG" value="1"/>> <Array name="ciao"><ArrayData type="UBYTE" value="72"/><ArrayData
type="UBYTE" value="101"/><ArrayData type="UBYTE"
value="108"/><ArrayData type="UBYTE" value="108"/><ArrayData
type="UBYTE" value="111"/><ArrayData type="UBYTE"
value="33"/><ArrayData type="UBYTE" value="0"/></Array>
    </Dataspace>
</Assembly>

Two things, the root node is different from the root element and cannot contain attributes. It is the entry point to the document, the / in your first template. Secondly the xmlns part is a namespace declaration, to read about matching nodes in a namespace see http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect2/N5536.html, especially numbers 13 and 23.
