Re: testXSLT copy-of warning message

[david_n_bertoni]

You'll need to supply a minimal sample input document and a minimal
stylesheet to reproduce the problem so we can determine what is going on.

I suspect the problem is you're trying to copy nodes into a comment, which
is why you are getting this warning message.  You cannot do the following:

   <xsl:comment><xsl:copy-of select="document($file)" /></xsl:comment>

and expect to get "markup" as the content of the comment.  This is a bug
that was fixed in Xalan-C 1.3 or 1.4.  This also applies to the content of
xsl:attribute and xsl:processing-instruction.

Hello,
i'm a Xalan-1.4 user (Linux & Solaris).
I'm using testXSLT, and trying to construct a tree-fragment of an XML file
,which is not the input XML. (it is actually a xsd file, included by
another xsd file, which is the input XML)
I'm trying doing it using the line:

             <xsl:copy-of select="document($file)" />

however, the testXSLT outputs the following message:

             XSLT warning: Only text nodes can be copied in this context.
The node is ignored, source tree node: #document

i used to use Xalan-1.2, and its testXSLT doesn't have any problems
processing this line

is there another way of constructing a tree-frag from file, or a way to
work around this warning?

tx in advance
