RE: [xsl] Problem with Checking for a node.

Lakshmi Narayana,

If you want to specially process C nodes (or non-C nodes), the "XSL way" 
would probably be to have a null template that explicitly matches C nodes.  
This was illustrated by a prior respondent:

<xsl:template match="C"/>

This gives you the option of affecting C nodes in a specific template, and 
of processing non-C nodes elsewhere (in a different template), without an 
explicit "switch".

If you just want to ignore non-C nodes you could also do:

<xsl:template match="node()[not (self:C)]|@*">
...
</xsl:template>
