Interesting variation of the identity transformation, I used the
following code which worked!
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<xsl:template match="/html:html">
<xsl:apply-templates select="html:body/node()" mode="identity"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="node()|@*" mode="identity">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates mode="identity"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Thanks for the tip!

Hi,
You want to get to the body and then copy the elements. For example:
<xsl:template match="/html">
<xsl:apply-templates select="body" mode="identity"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="node()|@*" mode="identity">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates mode="identity"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
best,

Hi everyone, I just joined this list so "greetings". I joined because
even after reading the entire
http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect2/N1930.html page on copying, and
reading the reference on xsl:copy and xsl:copy-of I am still vexed by an
annoying problem. I'm using XALAN through the ColdFusion MX
implementation of their xmlTransform() function. I'm not sure exactly
which version of Xalan that is.
I'm trying to deep copy [the _content_ of] an xhtml body element. I have
users who enter arbitary HTML which I then pass through HTML TIDY which
produces a nice well-formed XHTML document for me. I want to extract the
body and store the content only.
