embedded xml tag
Mick,

What I am trying to achieve is this:

<p>Some text here <span>emphasised words</span> and more text here</p>

So, my question is, how can I apply the 'emphasis' template in an 'inline'
manner to elements 'embedded' inside other elements?

By doing this:


<xsl:template match="para">
  <p>
  <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </p>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="emphasis">
  <span>
  <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </span>
</xsl:template>

Forget value-of until you've mastered working all the way through the node tree applying templates (you'll get the value-of at the bottom in the text node). Read up on the built in templates and how the processor traverses the tree by default. Soon it will click.

Hope this is clear.

Very. :-)


Cheers,
Wendell
