Hi
I have an attribute the appears in both the root node and child node
for example, below the attribute VERSION appears in the rood node
(PRODMSG ) and a child node (OPERATION )
================
INPUT XML
================
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<PRODMSG VERSION="1.2" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
ID="00051004_20070503024353">
  <HEADER>
    <OPERATION NAME="PRICE"  VERSION="1.2">
      <USERNAME>SMITGHJ</USERNAME>
      <HOSTNAME>00051004</HOSTNAME>
      <DATETIME>2007-05-03T01:30:16.710</DATETIME>
    </OPERATION>
  </HEADER>
</PRODMSG>

However all I want to do is update the root node (PRODMSG) VERSION
attribute to 2.0 but leave the child node version untouched. Problem
is if I select the PRODMSG and it's attributes and update the version
to 2.0

        .......
	<xsl:template match="@VERSION|PRODMSG">
			<xsl:attribute name="VERSION">2.0</xsl:attribute>
	</xsl:template>
       ......

I get nothing but if I do this .......

================
TRANSFORM
================

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/
Transform">
	<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/
>
	<xsl:template match="/">
		<xsl:apply-templates/>
	</xsl:template>

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

	<!--UPDATE the version number to 2.0 -->
	<xsl:template match="@VERSION">
			<xsl:attribute name="VERSION">2.0</xsl:attribute>
	</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>


I get the following output (ALL the versions are updated to 2.0) .

OUTPUT XML
================
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<PRODMSG VERSION="2.0" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"

      <DATETIME>2007-05-03T01:30:16.710</DATETIME>
    </OPERATION>
  </HEADER>
</PRODMSG>
