transformation with deleting document-element

           Summary: transformation with deleting document-element
           Product: XalanJ2
           Version: 2.2.x
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Xalan
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


I found a bug in Xalan, when doing a transformation, which only deletes the 
document element.

test-XML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<test test="test">
    <test2 test2="test2">
        <test3 test3="test3"/>
    </test2>
</test>

test-XSL:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; version="1.0">
    <xsl:output indent="yes"/>
    <xsl:template match="test">
        <xsl:copy-of select="*|@*"/>
    </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

test-output:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<test2 xmlns:xml="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace"; test="test" 
test2="test2">
    <test3 test3="test3"/>
</test2>

The stylesheet should cause an error or ignore the attribute 'test' silently, 
but not add it to the new document-element 'test2'. Also the namespace-node 
xmlns:xml="..." is not needed.

I used Xalan 2.2.D11 for the test. Changing in the stylesheet from copy-of 
select="*|@*" to select="*" works fine of course. Sorry, I don't know the 
correct component.
