Re: arbitrary depth element type conversion

Please try this stylesheet

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

<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" />

<!-- identity template -->
<xsl:template match="node() | @*">
   <xsl:copy>
     <xsl:apply-templates select="node() | @*" />
   </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="*" priority="1">
   <div class="{name()}">
     <xsl:apply-templates />
   </div>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Mukul
