Re: [xsl] simple xslt question, retrieved data has no xml tags.

Hi,
     <xsl:apply-templates select="self" />

The above line in your xslt only selects the node for processing and
without a corresponding template to match, it is left to the default
templates to do something and they only output the text value of the nodes.
If you'd like the xml structure add the following to your xslt.

<xsl:template match="self">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

Hope this helps.

cheers,
prakash

Hello all,
I need to import data from a 35MB xml file into a sql server database. I'm
trying to cut that file in smaller chunks of data that can be more
manageable.
I'm using .NET framework 1.1 for this. I believe the processor is MSXML
4.0.
I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong but each time I apply an xslt to
the
file I only get the text inside the nodes and I want to preserve the xml
structure of the nodes I select, in order to create smaller xml files.

Here's the code so far:

Here's the xslt file
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:fn="http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions"
xmlns:xdt="http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-datatypes">
       <xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"
media-type="xml"/>
       <xsl:template match="//products[equipment/model='MX210']">
            <xsl:apply-templates select="self" />
       </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>


Dim doc2 As XmlDocument = New XmlDocument
           doc2.Load("DA880data.xml")

           ' Modify the XML file.
           Dim root As XmlElement = doc2.DocumentElement


           ' Create an XPathNavigator to use for the transform.
           Dim nav As XPathNavigator = root.CreateNavigator()

           ' Transform the file.
           Dim xslt As XslTransform = New XslTransform
           xslt.Load("transformdata.xsl")
           Dim writer As XmlTextWriter = New
XmlTextWriter("output.xml", Nothing)
           xslt.Transform(nav, Nothing, writer, Nothing)


Any idea is more than welcome. Thanks a lot for looking into this.
