Hi Bryan, Hmm. That's a fair bit to take in. I'll have to think about that tonight to understand what's going on there. I'd completely missed that xsl:copy copied just the node and not its children. Looking again its explanation at w3c schools I begin to understand. Am I right in thinking that the: <xsl:copy><xsl:copy-of select="@*"/> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:copy> copies all the attributes? I'm not actually interested in attributes at this point, just content, but I think I see where you're coming from. Thanks to both you and David. At least I have some stuff to try now - whereas I was fresh out of ideas as midnight approached last night. As I said to David, I'll try to remember to let you know how I get on Thanks Peter -----Original Message----- From: Bryan Rasmussen [mailto:bry@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 08 November 2004 14:03 To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [xsl] Conditional extraction of data -- Bryan Rasmussen > <xsl:copy><xsl:copy-of select="@*"/> > <xsl:apply-templates/> > </xsl:copy> I always prefer this way of copying, generally using a mode, on particular namespaces or all elements. so <xsl:template match="*" mode="copier"> <xsl:copy><xsl:copy-of select="@*"/> <xsl:apply-templates mode="copier"/> </xsl:copy> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="tag2" mode="copier"> <i><xsl:apply-templates/></i> </xsl:template> <xsl:template math="anElement"> <xsl:apply-templates mode="copier"/> </xsl:template> so that everything gets copied with the copier mode, but tag2 doesn't and it escapes the mode. This is just a personal preference though.
