Re: Can you apply a template match on a copy node?

td {
    width: 500px;
    background-color: red;
}

Hi Joerg,

The reason for wanting to process <td> in a seperate match was that it could
be used to define a style for <td> in one place, and one place only. Whether
the <td> was in the xml or written by another match I wanted one place where
it's attributes could be set generically, a bit like using xsl as a css.

I'm not that familar with extensions used in Michael Kay's approach. Am I
right in thinking that to use node-set I need to install something like
Xalan.exe, and this will then pass a string back into a node set? How do
these extensions effect efficiency of the tranform? I've been told xsl/xml
transforms are already fairly processor intensive compared to something like
a pure asp solution, so am a bit reluctent to start complicating the process
further with external calls. Dooes anyone know of or have any good bench
marks?

Cheers,

Mike
