Re: Change text on given node at runtime

Hi Jeff ,
  You can try a XSL something like below. This will
replace the contents of tag <A> with 'Some new text'
and copy other things to output as it is. But you want
to provide the tag name and the new text, *at run
time*. If you can tell what is your XSLT processor and
*how you would like to supply the 2 parameters at run
time*, i can try modifying the stylesheet accordingly.

 i don't know if Jeni's XSL is meeting your
requirement(it looks quite complicated to me for your
problem).

Regards,
Mukul

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
 <xsl:template match="@* | node()">
   <xsl:copy>
     <xsl:apply-templates />
   </xsl:copy>	    
 </xsl:template>	
	
 <xsl:template match="A">
   <A>Some new text</A>
 </xsl:template>
	
</xsl:stylesheet>
