How to add top level element to XML using XSLT?

Question

I have a simple XML, that I want to add a new root to. The current root is <myFields> and I want to add <myTable> so it would look like.

<myTable>
    <myFields>
    .
    .
    </myFields>
</myTable>

Answer 1

Something like this should work for you...

<xsl:template match="/">
  <myTable>
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </myTable>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="@*|node()">
  <xsl:copy>
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

Answer 2

This is probably the shortest solution :) :

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> 
    <xsl:template match="/"> 
        <myTable> 
            <xsl:copy-of select="node()" /> 
        </myTable> 
    </xsl:template> 
</xsl:stylesheet>
