Re: Matching processing-instructions

i4m sorry. Did not read the specification carefully.
Thank you Geert to clear up my mistake.

wrong, <xsl:apply-templates/> DOES hit child PIs

xml:
<foo>
     <?foo bar?>
</foo>

xslt:
    <xsl:template match="foo">
         <xsl:apply-templates/>
     </xsl:template>
     <xsl:template match="processing-instruction()">
         <xsl:copy-of select="."/>
     </xsl:template>

result:
    <?foo bar?>

The reference Philipp added talks about the built-in template
It means that you need to have a template for the process-instruction()
But you were already having that

PIs are considered nodes

Hope this helps

Hi Karl,

no, <xsl:apply-templates/> does not hit PIs. You have to use
processing-instruction() or node() (also hits element, text, PI and
comment nodes).

PS: See also section 5.8 in http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt:
"The built-in template rule for processing instructions and comments
is to do nothing."

Is an <xsl:apply-templates/> going to hit on child processing
instructions matches, or do I need to specifically select them like:
<xsl:apply-templates select="processing-instructions()"/>

<xsl:template match="processing-instrunction()">
.. do something ..
</xsl:template>
