Re: [xsl] slicing an XML document

> Is there a quick and dirty way to slice an XML document?

take the identity transform from the xslt spec and add
<xsl:template priority="1001" match="/*/*/*"/>

and everything below level three will be zapped.

If you want a number as a param then instead do

<xsl:template priority="1001" match="*[count(ancestor::*) &gt; $somenumber]"/>
