Re: What is the equivalent for-each of <xsl:copy-of

Thanks Mukul,

This worked for me.
<xsl:apply-templates select="$tableAsXML" mode="x" />

 <xsl:template match="*" mode="x">
    <xsl:copy>
      <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
      <xsl:apply-templates mode="x"/>
    </xsl:copy>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template match="text()" mode="x">
    <xsl:call-template name="normalizeEntityForHTML">
      <xsl:with-param name="arg" select="."/>
    </xsl:call-template>
  </xsl:template>

And Martin your right it was outputting content just not with the
correct html table hierarchy like so.

<table id="mh43527">  </table>
               <tr id="mh43529">     </tr>
               <td id="mh43531">&nbsp;</td>
               <td id="mh43533">&nbsp;</td>
               <td id="mh43535">&nbsp;</td>

I made a mistake of looking at the view source from firefox. Firefox
was modifying the poor input such that the elements in the table were
not present in the source.

Regards
Alex

An informal recording with one mic under a tree leads to some pretty
sweet acoustic sounds.
