comment element

[paetje]

I want to make an alement <comment></comment> within my XML document. This should be transformed by my XSL-T document.

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

This doesn't work. This comment element is used to put comment into my XML document while I'm using XMetal.Does anyone know how I can make this work ?

That's what the <xsl:comment> is used for:

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

The difference here is that the <!-- and --> mark the coment inside the XSLT document itself. And <xsl:comment> marks that the content inside it suppose to be outputed as a comment marked with the above.
