[xsl] strange behaviour in Xalan
Subject: [xsl] strange behaviour in Xalan From: Jörg Heinicke <joerg.heinicke@xxxxxx> Date: Sat, 20 Oct 2001 15:27:53 +0200 |
Hello, on another list there was a question about deleting the root-element. One reply suggested <xsl:template match="boxes"> <xsl:copy-of select="*|@*"/> </xsl:template> , which in my eyes can cause problems, if the root-element has attributes. So I tested it with Xalan 2.2.D11. But I get a really strange output: XML <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <boxes test="1"> <box id="1234"> <title>Ciao</title> <body>This is the body of the box</body> </box> </boxes> XSL <?xml version="1.0"?> <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0"> <xsl:output indent="yes"/> <xsl:template match="boxes"> <xsl:copy-of select="*|@*"/> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> Output <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <box xmlns:xml="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace" test="1" id="1234"> <title>Ciao</title> <body>This is the body of the box</body> </box> 1. Why is the attribute test="1" not causing an error, but will be copied to the new root-element? 2. Where does ' xmlns:xml="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace" ' come from? Changing the XSL to <xsl:copy-of select="*"/> the output is like expected. In my eyes this is more than obviously a bug, but maybe I'm wrong. What can you say about that?
