I am new to XSLT. Facing some problems with removing empty tags from the xml. Here is the xml sample that I want to transform.

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<row>
<country tc="1">India</country>
<region/>
<address tc1="f"></address>
<city>Indore</city>
</row>

The condition here is that I don't want to remove the tags that have any attribute in it. In the above case I don't want to remove the <address> tag but <region> tag should be removed.

Thanks in advance,
Ashish

Define an identity transformation with the following

<xsl:apply-template select="*[count(@*) > 0]"/>

Hope this helps
