Generating Comments with xsl:comment
You can also create comments on the fly with the <xsl:comment> element. Here's an example. In this case, I'm creating comments that will replace <PLANET> elements. I'll include the name of the planet in the text of the comment:
Listing . ch13_20.xsl
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="PLANETS">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>
Planets
</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<xsl:apply-templates select="PLANET"/>
</BODY>
</HTML>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="PLANET">
<xsl:comment>This was the <xsl:value-of select="NAME"/> element</xsl:comment>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
|
Here's the result:
<HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE> Planets </TITLE> </HEAD> ...
