That's'exactly how I solved it :)

Hi Martynas,

You can update your xslt with below code


     <xsl:template match="Index">
     <xsl:apply-templates select="//ToC" mode="disp"/>

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

  <xsl:template match="ToC"/>

  <xsl:template match="ToC" mode="disp">
        <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </xsl:template>

Please let me know if its not fulfills your requirements.

Thanks

Subject: [xsl] Moving elements during identity transformation

Hey list,

I'm doing an identity transformation which cleans up, filters and moves
around elements from my source document.

Let's say there is <ToC> anywhere in the document, and from there it has to
be moved directly *before* <Index> element, wherever that one is.

What I'm doing is this:

       <xsl:template match="Index">
               <xsl:apply-templates select="/ToC"/> <!-- lets just say this
selects ToC -->
               <xsl:copy>
                   <xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()"/>
               </xsl:copy>
       </xsl:template>

So the <ToC> is now at its new location, but the old one has still to be
removed:

       <xsl:template match="ToC"/>

Now the problem is, this will also remove the new <ToC>. Since this is a
identity transformation, I don't want to use <xsl:copy-of>, as some of the
<ToC> descendants might also need processing.

What do you do in such situation?
The only thing I can think of is introducing some parameter like $keep in
the <ToC> template and then pass it from the <Index> template to
differentiate between the two cases.

Thanks,

Martynas
