I'm not sure where your confusion arises.  Your code explictly copies
the HTMl element twice, so you get two HTML elements in teh output.

    <xsl:template match="HTML">
        <xsl:copy>
       xsl:copy generates a copy of the current hTML element  (only the current
        element, not its children or attributes)


            <xsl:copy-of select="."/>

this copies the entire current (HTML) element including all descendents
and attributes so you get HTML again. Most likely, you just don't want
this line.


xmlns:saxon="http://saxon.sf.net/";>  <!-- Line 1-->

use the  exclude-result-prefixes attribute on xsl:stylesheet.
