[xsl] Understanding when to use apply-templates with no selector
Subject: [xsl] Understanding when to use apply-templates with no selector From: Karl Stubsjoen <kstubs@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 29 Jan 2011 15:25:38 -0700 |
I see this a lot: <xsl:apply-templates /> I have even used it but to be honest, I'm not sure I undertand it completely. Given the following xml: <a> <b> <c> <d> </a> If the current context is <a> and you call <xsl:apply-templates />, the following template matches will hit: match="a" match="b" match="*" <!-- which picks up on a match of C and D --> What else gets matched? If <a> looks like this <a att1="123" att2="456">, we better have attribute matches too? What about comments and processing instructions? So if you have. <a> <!-- this is a comment --!> <?this is a processing instruction?> <b> </a> Is there a best practice here to mention? Thanks, just thinking out loud on this.
