I am in the process of translating a large set of XML files. I've run
into some problems and thought someone may be able to assist.
Problem 1: Comments
-------------------
I need to match the comments (<!-- -->)in the original XML file, and
output them to the translated file. The code I have to do this:
<xsl:template match="comment( )">
<xsl:comment><x sl:value-of select="."/></xsl:comment>
</xsl:template>
This template code seems to work fine if this is the "only" template
in my .xslt file. As soon as I add another template (for example):
<xsl:template match="/Project">
<xsl:apply-templates mode="copy" select="."/>
</xsl:template>
the comments are no longer printed. How can ensure that all comments
are going to be output?
Problem 2: DOCTYPE
------------------
The first few lines of original xml file includes something like:
<!DOCTYPE Project [
<!ENTITY common_device_t ype SYSTEM "CommonDeviceTy pe.xml">
]>
I need to be able to conserve these lines of text and output them to
the translated file. Currently, I don't how to match on this text.
Secondly, further down in the file is a reference to this entity:
&common_device_ type;
I don't want this entity to be expanded, but instead I want to just
keep the text output as original.
If anyone could offer any suggestions on how to do these things, it
would be much appreciated.
Thank you for your time,

If you want to copy a comment node then you can simply use
<xsl:template match="comment( )">
<xsl:copy />
</xsl:template>

You will have to somehow recursively apply-templates to child nodes so
that they are processed. The above snippet doesn't show what you are
doing but I suspect processing never reaches the comment nodes.

I can't be sure without seeing your whole stylesheet, but notice that
the second template calls apply-templates with mode=copy, and the
first template does not have mode=copy.

I've got a PHP application that's 2 megs in size. Of that, my guess is
200k-400k is comments. Do they impose a performance hit? I've been
postponing any kind of optimization, but at some point I'll have to do
it. Is taking out the comments worth it? Of all the optimizations I can
do, where should it rank?

Hello all,
I'm having a problem with DOCTYPES. Until now, I haven't been

Hello,
I've been just investigating IE conditional comments - hiding things from
non-IE/Win browsers is easy, but I wanted to know, if it's possible to hide

I found <!> in the original MSDN documentation, but this is (although
it is working) unfortunately non-validating gibberish.
So I fooled around trying to find a way to make it valid. And voila:

At the risk of flogging a dead horse, I'm wondering why Python doesn't have
any multiline comments. One can abuse triple-quotes for that purpose, but
that's obviously not what it's for and doesn't nest properly. ML has a
very elegant system for nested comments with (* and *).
Using an editor to throw #s in front of every line has limitations. Your
editor has to support it and you have to know how to use that feature. Not

Several weeks ago I asked what comments I could pass to DB2 in a SELECT
statement. I don't remember whether I said via PHP/ODBC. I was assured
that both /* */ style comment blocks and -- comment lines were allowed.
Unfortunately, neither work. Both -- and /* */ comments cause a
"premature end of statement". Any sage advice?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
