An XSLT stylesheet is an XML document that consists of a combination of XHTML markup, XSLT template rules, and XPath statements that work together. XHTML markup defines the display environment that XML data is presented in.
XSLT (eXtensible Stylesheet Language Transformations) is the recommended style sheet language for XML. XSLT is far more sophisticated than CSS. With XSLT you can add/remove elements and attributes to or from the output file.
Before learning XSLT, we should first understand XSL which stands for EXtensible Stylesheet Language. It is similar to XML as CSS is to HTML.
XSLT is designed to be used as part of XSL. In addition to XSLT, XSL includes an XML vocabulary for specifying formatting. XSL specifies the styling of an XML document by using XSLT to describe how the document is transformed into another XML document that uses the formatting vocabulary.
Use the identity transform with overrides for the elements you want to rename:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:template match="@*|node()"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()" /> </xsl:copy> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="CD/NAME"> <CD-NAME><xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()" /></CD-NAME> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="CATALOG/NAME"> <CATALOG-NAME><xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()" /></CATALOG-NAME> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> If you love us?
