RE: [xsl] Node comparison

["Don Stinchfield" <destinchfield@xxxxxxxx>]

Kevin,

As a first attempt I used the <xsl:element> tag to solve the problem.
I queried for the correct value by comparing element names.  This is
based on the assumption that for tag names you meant "<Value 1>" to be
"<Value_1>" and not "<Value qualifier="1">.

<xsl:template match="Parent_2">
  <xsl:copy>
    <xsl:for-each select="*">
      <xsl:variable name="destName" select="name()"/>
      <xsl:element name="{$destName}">
        <xsl:value-of select="/test1/Parent_1/*[name()=$destName]/text()"/>
      </xsl:element>
    </xsl:for-each>
  </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

Hope this is what you were looking for.

Regards,
Don
