I am trying to copy a tree in its entirety with an exception. Essentially I want to insert <Element> elements wherever a <tag> element occurs, based on a matching attribute "name": <root> <Element name="Hello"> content_I_want_to_keep </Element> <Element name="Barney"> more_content_I_want_to_keep </Element> <Element name="George"> <tag name="Hello"/> <!-- insert Element name="Hello" here in result tree--> <tag name="Barney"/> <!-- insert Element name="Barney" here in result tree--> </Element> </root> The result I want: <root> <Element name="Hello"> content_I_want_to_keep </Element> <Element name="Barney"> more_content_I_want_to_keep </Element> <Element name="George"> <Element name="Hello"> content_I_want_to_keep </Element> <Element name="Barney"> more_content_I_want_to_keep </Element> </Element> </root> Templates: <xsl:template match="tag"> <xsl:copy-of select="//Element[@name='Hello']"/> <!-- this line works fine, but is too literal--> <xsl:copy-of select="//Element[@name='@name']"/> <!-- this line doesn't work - why?--> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="Element"> <xsl:copy-of select="."/> </xsl:template> I am using James Clark's XT. Have tried many variations in the "tag" template to no avail. Am I making an XPath mistake, or is it something to do with xsl:copy-of? Thanks in advance, Paul Kiel Sertus Software pkiel@xxxxxxxxxx XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
