I have a requirement to copy a source XML input file but adjust just a
couple of elements in the file. I thought this would be real simple but
I can't get it to work. I have two templates, one specific to match
elements I want to change and a identity transform one. Here is the XSL
I have:
<xsl:template match="field" priority="2"> <xsl:variable name="fieldindex" select="@index"/> <xsl:variable name="fieldname" select="ancestor::dataSet/fielddefinition[$fieldindex]/@label"/> <field> <xsl:value-of select="."/> </field> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="* | comment() | text() | processing-instruction() | @*" priority="1"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:apply-templates select="* | comment() | text() | processing-instruction() | @*"/> </xsl:copy> </xsl:template> The problem is the template that matches field elements is always ignored, despite the higher priority! So I just get an exact copy of the input XML. Can someone explain why this is and offer a simple solution to my requirement. Thanks, Chris
