Subject: RE: child and descendant: what is the difference really From: Kay Michael <Michael.Kay@xxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 30 Oct 2000 14:48:46 -0400 (EST) |
Essentially, all I want is for everything between the <ni:body> tags to be copied to the output HTML. I have solved this with the following: <xsl:template match="ni:body"> <xsl:copy-of select="node()" /> </xsl:template> This copies all the children of the current node (because node() means child::node()), with their descendants (because xsl:copy-of is recursive). but I don't understand my answer as I would have expected: <xsl:copy-of select="text() | descendant::node()" /> The problem with this is that it will copy nodes more than once. It copies each of the descendant nodes (because of the descendant::node(), and for each one it copies all its descendants (because xsl:copy-of is recursive).
