This is probably a naive question, but I could not find it in the archives.

Can I transform xhtml documents using xsl, or does this just not make sense?

I'm trying to replace a tag with a specified attribute to another tag.

The only xpath that does anything is *, which dumps the text of the html.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="/">
<verse>
<xsl:value-of select="*"/>
</verse>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>


I'm using xsltproc and saxon8, both of which do the same thing.
