RE: [xsl] Mapping via intermediate XML file problem
Subject: RE: [xsl] Mapping via intermediate XML file problem From: "Michael Kay" <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 1 Apr 2008 21:48:05 +0800 |
The most likely explanation is that your source document contains an element name which is not present in the mapping document. It should be easy enough to write your code to guard against this possibility, perhaps outputting an xsl:message and using the existing tag name when it happens. Are you sure it makes sense to do <xsl:apply-templates select="node()|@*"/>? Applying templates to attribute nodes, when there is no template rule that matches attributes, does not seem a very good idea. However, I don't think this is the cause of your problem.
