Re: [xsl] modes and temp trees (was Re: [xsl] grouping + global variable (?))

[David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx>]

Because I needed to modify the document in the intermediate stage, and 
thus could not just rely on copy-of, I had templates like:

<xsl:template match="db:article" mode="processed-bibrefs">
   <article xmlns="http://docbook.org/docbook-ng";>
     <xsl:copy>
       <xsl:apply-templates mode="processed-bibrefs"/>
     </xsl:copy>
   </article>
</xsl:template>



Why do you have   <article  and <xsl:copy (and similar in all your other
similar templates) this is doubling the size of the tree for no obvious
gain, converting

<article>
...
</article>

into


<article>
<article>
...
</article>
</article>


Don't you just want one of <article and <xsl:copy ??
