Hi,

I have a XML file that I want to transform. I want to be able to do a
search&  replace on elements in the XML and replace them. For example:

Replace<para>  with [ParaStyle:para]
Replace<text>  with [ParaStyle:text]

etc...

Just turn each of these rules into an XSLT template rule:

<xsl:template match="para">
[ParaStyle:para]<xsl:apply-templates/>[/ParaStyle:para]
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="text">
[ParaStyle:text]<xsl:apply-templates/>[/ParaStyle:text]
</xsl:template>

I've had to make guesses there about what the true requirement is, including whitespace handling.
