RE:  Newbie issue with apply-templates and output
   Hi,
]         You may try the other gentleman's suggestion or remove the
xsl:apply-templates from
          inside the template for element if you know it only has text
content.

 Regards,

Hi,

I'm quite new to all this XSL stuff and have now got very confused with
what's happening with the output using my XSL - it's dumping out the
text from nodes even tough I've not specified in the XSL to do this. The
code (xml & xsl) is given below with the output - and I'm confused why
it's output 'heading 1' etc twice, and why 'I'm here' is being output at
all. How can I change my xsl so it only outputs the headings once, and
the extra text isn't displayed at all?

It's probably obvious to everyone else - but not to me! :-(

Any help/explanation much appreciated,
Alex
 --------------------
Here's the XSL:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml"/>

<xsl:template match="/">
	<report>
	<xsl:apply-templates/>
	</report>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="element">
  <temp><xsl:value-of select="."/></temp>
  <xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="body">
 <xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

And here is the xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<html>
	<element>heading 1</element>
	<element>heading 2</element>
	<body>
		<element>heading 3</element>
		<element>heading 4</element>
		I'm here
	</body>
</html>

But the output I'm getting is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16"?>
<report>
	<temp>heading 1</temp>
	heading 1
	<temp>heading 2</temp>
	heading 2
	<temp>heading 3</temp>
	heading 3
	<temp>heading 4</temp>
	heading 4
	I'm here
</report>
