XSLT <xsl:template> Element



Definition and Usage

The <xsl:template> element contains the rules to be applied when a specified node is matched.

The match attribute is used to associate the template with an XML element. The match attribute can also be used to define templates for entire branches of an XML document (e.g., match="/" defines the entire document).

Note: <xsl:template> is a top-level element.
