Remove optional elements

[alk]

Hi,

I'd like to run an XSLT that removes all elements from the source document which are optional according to the related schema. Is there a way to determine if an element ist mandatory or optional???

Hi Alex,

In the general case I believe it is very difficult as you practically need to implement an XML Schema processor in XSLT. If you can take advantage of some patterns in your schema then that may be a reasonably doable task.
