Subject: Re: [xsl] Re: applying templates to all child elements except two specific ones From: Ram UGroups <ram_ugroups@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 6 Dec 2002 07:13:30 -0800 (PST) |
Hello Dimitre, Thank you so much for the response. But I still am not able to figure out how to work on all the descendant elements except child1 and child2. Basically in my requirement, after the transformation, child1 and child2 should remain the same but everyother element's text need to worked upon which are descendants of <element1>. When I tried to use your template, its the <child1> and <child2> elements that are being transformed. could you please throw more light on it ? Thanks. --- Dimitre Novatchev <dnovatchev@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > --- Ram UGroups wrote: > > > Hello, > > > > I do have an element in my input XML file which > has a > > nested structure with lots of other elements.
