Subject: [xsl] seriously trivial question about processing the root element From: "Robert P. J. Day" <rpjday@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 19 Mar 2003 17:16:52 -0500 (EST) |
more than one book i've been reading has presented examples of processing an XML document whose document element is, say, <doc>, with: <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:apply-templates select="doc"/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="doc"> ....etc etc ... if one assumes that an XML document will have a single document element anyway, is there any value to the template that matches "/", if one is going to start processing at the document root anyway? at least in the above example, it seems to be little more than aesthetics. is this accurate? rday XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
