I am using the below XSLT
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes" method="xml" version="1.0"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<!-- identity transform -->
<xsl:template match="@*|node()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="soap:Envelope | soap:Body">
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
but it is not removing the line xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/". it is removing only soap:Envelope and soap:Body. can any please help me to write an XSLT to remove tags as i requested?
Best Answer
Using XSLT 2.0 you could write your identity transformation as
see http://xsltransform.net/jyH9rNm.
Or, with XSLT 1.0, you need to use
to make sure in scope namespaces like the soap namespaces are not copied through. And in the stylesheet I would move
xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
toor add
exclude-result-prefixes="soap"
on thexsl:stylesheet
. See http://xsltransform.net/nc4NzRo.
