RE: Flummoxed with Filtering

You accidentally closed a template tag:

<xsl:template match="summ | //Synopsis" />
   <xsl:copy-of select="." />
</xsl:template>

You want:

<xsl:template match="summ | //Synopsis">
   <xsl:copy-of select="." />
</xsl:template>

HTH!

Subject:  Flummoxed with Filtering 

Hi all,

I'm trying to use filtering transformations and put together some code
based on
a boilerplate I found in Jeni Tennison's book.

I figure I'm missing something fundamental because I'm getting this
error 
message:

 >XSLT error: (StylesheetHandler) xsl:copy-of not allowed inside a
stylesheet.
 >(../xsl/qhelp.xsl, line 11, column 28)

For this stylesheet:

 ><?xml version="1.0"?>
 ><xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
 >	xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
 ><xsl:strip-space elements="*" />
 >
 ><xsl:template match="@*|node()">
 > <xsl:apply-templates />
 ></xsl:template>
 >
 ><xsl:template match="summ | //Synopsis" />
 > <xsl:copy-of select="." />
 ></xsl:template>

used on this source (XML) example:

 ><?xml version="1.0" standalone='yes'?>
 ><!-- Start of need2mput conversion -->
 ><Tool name="need2mput"
 >      date='"June 20, 2002"'
 >      ver='"1.0"'>
 > <Name>
 >  <summ>Determine which files you have modified </summ>
 > </Name>
 > <Synopsis>
 >  <c> <o>[ -v ] [ <var>file...</var> | <var>dir...</var> ] </o></c>
 > </Synopsis>
 > <Description>
 > <p>The <tt>need2mput</tt> command determines which files you have
 >  modified in your sandbox and therefore may want to check in under
 >  source control. </p></Description>
 > <Options>
 >  <Definitions>
 >   <dt><tt>-v</tt></dt>
 >    <df>verbose mode (for debugging) </df>
 >  </Definitions>
 > </Options>
 > <Examples>
 >  <ex>need2mput bat/share/bin/need2mput</ex>
 > </Examples>
 ></Tool>

My goal is to simply yank out what's in between the <summ></summ> and 
<c></c> tags.

Thanks for any help,
