[xsl] xsl:copy-of issue

[a kusa <akusa8@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

I have a CALS table in my input thatI am trying to copy into my result
tree except for some attributes. I have tried 'except' but it just is
not working!

Here is my XSL snippet:

	<xsl:template match="table">
		<table id="{generate-id()}">
			<xsl:copy-of select="@* except(@type) |node()/>
					</table>
	</xsl:template>

Here is the table snippet:

	<table>
									<tgroup cols="3">
										<colspec colname="col1"/>
										<colspec colname="col2"/>
										<colspec colname="col3"/>
										<tbody>
											<row>
												<entry valign="middle" align="center">
													<emphasis>data</emphasis>
												</entry>
												<entry valign="middle" align="center">
													<emphasis>data</emphasis>
												</entry>
												<entry valign="middle" align="center">
													<emphasis type="italic">data</emphasis>
												</entry>
											</row>

</tbody>
</table>

I want to copy the table except the attibute @type that occurs at
element <emphasis>

So this line: <emphasis type="italic">data</emphasis>

Why is my '<xsl:copy-of select="@* except(@type) |node()/>
' not working?

Thanks in advance for allyour help.
