Re: is there something like an xsl:ignore tag?

I'm not really sure I understand your question; you want to edit the XSL
script as though it were HTML source?

If you want some HTML source that can be programmatically eliminated,
how about enclosing it in something like:

 <span class="ignore">aLiteral</span>

and then putting:

 <xsl:template match="span[@ignore]"/>

in the XSL script?
