There have been at least a couple of examples posted that, were you to add them at the point of your last comment, would be a starting point to a solution. The thing that is missing here (and has been missing from the beginning, at least for me) is the desired output. Specifically, into **what form** do you to wish to transform the <ref> elements? Without that info I could not do much more than what others have already posted. But that's never stopped me before!! Here is an attempt on my part, starting with the last template you wrote and moving forward. ================================= <xsl:template match="attribute"> <!-- we do a bunch of fun transofrmations here --> <xsl:value-of select="@name" /> <xsl:value-of select="@type" /> <!-- would like to have the value of the description node here, but with all HTML elements left in tact and all "ref" elements transformed --> <xsl:apply-templates select="description"/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="description"> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="@*|node()"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/> </xsl:copy> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="ref"> <!-- (: Oh won't you do, that voodoo, that you do, so well! :) --> </xsl:template> ================================= This is all untested code, "off the top of my head". As such it may contain syntax errors. But you should be able to get the general idea of what to do from this. I hope this is helpful! -- Roger Glover glover_roger@xxxxxxxxx XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
