Re: [xsl] Transformation Grouping Problem (XSLT 2.0, Saxon-PE 9.3.0.5)

<book>
           <title>My Book Title</title>

           <para>book Blah, blah, blah</para>
           <para>book Dah, dah, dah</para>
           <para>book Lah, lah, lah</para>

           <level1>
                       <title>level1 AAA</title>

using 'for-each-group'  I can group by the different levels, but how can I = 
isolate just the 'top' content of the <book> or  <level#>?

For instance, I'd like to create an XML result-document that contains only:

<book>
           <title>My Book Title</title>

           <para>book Blah, blah, blah</para>
           <para>book Dah, dah, dah</para>
           <para>book Lah, lah, lah</para> </book>


...and another XML result-document that contains only:

<level1>
           <title>level1 AAA</title>
           <para>level1 Blah, blah, blah</para>
           <para>level1 Dah, dah, dah</para>
           <para>level1 Lah, lah, lah</para> </level1>


You can do:

<xsl:apply-templates select="*[not(*)]"/>

...which means "apply templates to the child elements which do not
have child elements".

eg:

<xsl:template match="book">
  <xsl:copy>
    <xsl:result-document ...>
      <xsl:apply-templates select="*[not(*)]"/>
