Subject: [xsl] apply-templates and priorities From: <simon_handley@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 15 Sep 2004 14:55:34 -0700 |
I'm confused about how the priorities of templates are computed. Using saxon 8.0, this stylesheet: <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0"> <xsl:template match="*" priority="1"> <xsl:message>in first</xsl:message> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="/" priority="10"> <xsl:message>in second</xsl:message> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> and an arbitrary source doc produces the message "in second" (as expected). Now if I switch around the priorities: <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0"> <xsl:template match="*" priority="10"> <xsl:message>in first</xsl:message> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="/" priority="1"> <xsl:message>in second</xsl:message> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> Then I still get "in second" (NOT as expected). Note that if the patterns are the same then this behaviour goes away (the latter case produces "in first"). Also, I see the same behaviour in earlier versions of saxon. My understanding of these things is that the default priorities for the two templates are different (as per section 5.5 of the 1.0 spec), but that the explicit priority just overrides the default priorities. Is something else going on, or have I missed something really simple?
