Sheesh that's a bit drastic. Aha I was in msxml mode. Just tried it with saxon and it gives me node <Product NodeID='A' Alors <xsl:strip-space elements="*"/> and it works fine <xsl:strip-space elements="*"/> <xsl:template match="Product"> <xsl:if test="descendant::*/text()"> <xsl:copy-of select="." /> </xsl:if> </xsl:template> Works fine Jobs a goodun ;-) Ciao Chris XML/XSL Portal http://www.bayes.co.uk/xml > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > [mailto:owner-xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of > Wendell Piez > Sent: 29 September 2001 00:00 > To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: Re: [xsl] Only copy nodes that have text at some > point in the tree > > > At 06:17 PM 9/28/01, Tom wrote: > >Doesn't xsl:value-of look for the first text content all the > way down > >the whole branch?
