Hello All,
I am trying to get a handle on some basic XSLT concepts. I am looking at
identity transforms and see these two basic templates:
<xsl:template match="node()|@*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="node()|@*"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="node()|@*" mode="copy">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates mode="copy"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
I don't understand the difference between the two. Thanks in advance.
