When I tried this sample with Xalan-J 2.7.1:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" />
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:variable name="fragment">
<x>
<y/>
</x>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="node">
<node>
<xsl:copy-of select="$fragment" />
</node>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:copy-of select="$node" />
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I get the output:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<node>
<x>
<y/>
</x>
</node>
So my finding does'nt match with your report ...
Could you please let us know, which version of Xalan you are using.
