Subject: Questions on the new XSL spec (section 2.7.12) From: Steve Dahl <sdahl@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 28 Dec 1998 23:32:22 -0500 |
In Section 2.7.12, the definition seems pretty clear, but I just wanted to confirm that <xsl:copy>, when applied to an attribute node, can only copy the attribute, and cannot modify its value. Also, is there any difference between <xsl:element name="{name(.)}"> and <xsl:copy>, when the current node is an element? <xsl:copy> talks about copying the namespace nodes of the element--if you wanted to exactly copy an element using <xsl:element>, how would you read the namespace nodes of a source element, and how would you create namespace nodes in the destination element? It sounds like the destination namespace nodes could be created using something like: <xsl:attribute name="xmlns:prefix"><xsl:value-of select="???"/></xsl:attribute> ...but because namespace-declaring attributes are not available in the source tree, how can we know what the original namespace URI was? Or the original prefix? XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
