Can someone please explain:
<xsl:template match="*" /> I was looking at an xsl file; it had the above line and right above it the comment: <!-- The template with match="*" below is a fail-safe. If at any point we get to a node in the XML tree that doesn't match any of our template match statements, we replace that node with blank space. --> This is in the context of going through an xml file and creating an html table. I think I understand what this means, but when (or maybe even why) would a condition like this happen? I commented out <xsl:template match="*" /> and I still got the same table. Thanks in advance, -alex ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
