Re: A non self closed xsl:apply-templates element to

> <xsl:template match="text()[ starts-with( ., '../Russia2006/' ) ]">
> <xsl:template match="@href[ starts-with( ., '../Russia2006/' ) ]">

various ways of combining those:

<xsl:template match="node()[self::text() or (not(self::*) and
name()='href')][ starts-with( ., '../Russia2006/' ) ]">
    <xsl:text>http://site.com/gallery/Russia/2006/</xsl:text>
    <xsl:value-of select="substring-after( ., '../Russia2006/' )" />
</xsl:template>

or probably better and more efficient

<xsl:template match="text()[ starts-with( ., '../Russia2006/' ) ]">
  <xsl:call-template name="share"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="@href[ starts-with( ., '../Russia2006/' ) ]">
  <xsl:call-template name="share"/>
</xsl:template>


<xsl:template name="share">
    <xsl:text>http://site.com/gallery/Russia/2006/</xsl:text>
    <xsl:value-of select="substring-after( ., '../Russia2006/' )" />
</xsl:template>
