Harish SiddarthaSubject: Adding a new sub element to the copied element using XSL
Author: Harish Siddartha
Date: 02 Jun 2009 09:59 PM
I have an input XML like:
<A>
<B></B>
<C></C>
</A>

and want to generate output XML like:
<E>
<A>
<B></B>
<C></C>
<D></D>
</A>
</E>

I need to copy the entire Node Set A using xsl:copy-of and then add a child element to Element A. and also the new Child element D is not present in the input XML.
Can anyone help me here? I am relatively new to XSL

It is clear from these basic questions that you know nothing about XSL. You want other people to do the work for you. Perhaps you should do a tutorial to actually learn it.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
exclude-result-prefixes="xs"
version="2.0">
<xsl:template match="/">
<E><xsl:apply-templates></xsl:apply-templates></E>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="A">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:copy-of select="B"></xsl:copy-of>
<D></D>
<xsl:copy-of select="C"></xsl:copy-of>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
