I'm rather new to XSL, so I may be missing something, but I would think that what you did is *exactly* right -- you override default handling of text() to display nothing. An alternative may be to make sure you always apply-templates against elements instead of something like node() which matches text(), or, of course, against text() itself. The following is an example which descends an XML tree and only prints out the elements: <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl='http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform' xmlns:xalan='http://xml.apache.org/xalan' version='1.0'> <xsl:output encoding='UTF-8' method='xml' indent='yes' xalan:indent-amount='2'/> <xsl:template match='/'> <xsl:apply-templates select="/*"/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="*"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:copy-of select="./@*"/> <xsl:apply-templates select="./*"/> </xsl:copy> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> Jim
