Hi David, > I missed the start of this thread but is d-o-e acceptable? Well, I think that your stylesheet demonstrates that the easiest way to approach this problem is to use a serial, SAX-like process rather than a tree-based process. And that's the point; when you start treating the XML source and result as streams of events, it's easier to use a SAX filter than XSLT. Of course you might want to use XSLT for other reasons. I played around with the idea of having a standard mapping of SAX events into elements, e.g.: <sax:startElement name="foo" /> <sax:endElement name="foo" /> which you could use as either the source or result of the stylesheet (or both) as desired. I don't know if that's a worthwhile avenue to pursue; it has the same disadvantage as d-o-e that there's no guarantee of the well-formedness of the result.
