Cheers, Wendell
Frank,
Comments are ordinarily not copied because they are matched by a built-in template that discards them:
<xsl:template match="comment()"/>
To override this, simply write a template of your own that copies them:
<xsl:template match="comment()"> <xsl:copy-of select="."/> </xsl:template>
You could also tighten your code as follows:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/> <!-- indent 'yes' asks your serializer to indent so you don't have to -->
<xsl:preserve-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:template match="AsiaInfoDb"> <aitags> <xsl:apply-templates/> </aitags> </xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="AsiaInfoDb/*"> <aitag id="{name()}"> <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/> <xsl:value-of select="."/> </aitag> </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
This isn't much different (and it should create the same output), but you'll find this approach scales better to more complex sorts of problems.
Enjoy -- Wendell
