You probably don't want to process attributes of the unwanted elements. With your code below, an attribute on <Dontwant1> would cause a run-time error.

This will do your job. Although.. You have 2 definitions of what you want to Remove.
1. Node and its children 2. Node .
I am not sure what you meant by "remove" But anyway, in either case, if you want to remove node and all its children, you just define an empty template if you want to ignore the node alone, then you define the template for that node and not bothor about copying the current node, and copy all its children.

Hi, I'd like to remove some elements from an xml hierachy using xslt:
Original xml example: <Dontwant1> <dontwant2>foo</dontwant2> <x3> <x4>stuff</x4> <y5>more stuff</y5> </x3> </Dontwant1>
Like to have transform output: <x3> <x4>stuff</x4> <y5>more stuff</y5> </x3>
Thanks for your insghts.
Tim
