Re: [xsl] questions.

Hi Mihir,

I think here you have a problem of unserstanding XSL. You don't modify the original XML-tree, you create a new one. This is important!! If you really want to "translate" <b> to <x>, you don't need to "delete" <b>, you only need to add <x>.

An example stylesheet:

<xsl:template match="a|c">
  <xsl:copy>
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="b">
  <x>
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
    <m></m>
    <n></n>
  </x>
</xsl:template>

Hope this helps,

Joerg

but if want to replace node b with node z ie

is changed to
<a>
	<x>
		<c></c>
		<m></m>
		<n></n>
	<x>
</a>

I can achive this by simply deleting node b and its chilren and adding node
x.
Is there any other way around this?

Manu

hi,
I have a xml file in the form
<a>
       <b>
               <c></c>
       </b>
</a>
I want to add two more children to node b say m and n so that the

resultant

xml looks like this.....

<a>
       <b>
               <c></c>
               <m></m>
               <n></n>
       </b>
</a>

BUT in the xsl file in want to specify the path with respect to node b.
How do i do it?
mihir
