Hi,

> I have an XML document as follows:
> 
> <root>
> 	<a>text</a>
> 	<b>text</b>
> 	<c>text</c>
> <root>
> 
> 
> Can I erase, delete or hide (using XSL) the "b" and "c" tags 

You can't modify the source tree in XSLT, but you can make a copy of it and while copying, ignore b and c elements, i.e.

<template match="@*|node()">
<copy>
<apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
</copy>
</template>

<template match="b|c" />

Cheers,
