Hi all, I know XSLT can extract data from a XML file, and provide us a way to format the output, but what is the role of a root node in the whole story? Clara -- thank you so much for your help

The root node is a somewhat artificial construct that acts as ancestor of all other nodes in a document, as opposed to a root element which is a child node of the root node. All three documents, the XSLT, the input, and the output would have a root node. Beyond that, I am not sure what you are asking. -- Björn Höhrmann · mailto:bjoern@hoehrmann.de · http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de Weinh.
