Getting XML content

stevenykl

Hello mates, I am new to XSL and would like to transform a NewML G2 format XML into another XML. For example I have:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<!--

Structure: NML2 SNI Text
-->

<newsMessage xmlns="http://iptc.org/std/nar/2006-10-01/" xmlns:rtr="http://www.reuters.com/ns/2003/08/content" xmlns:x="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<header>
<transmitId>tag:123.com,0000:newsml_N19279043:609406403</transmitId>

</header>
<itemSet>
<newsItem conformance="power" guid="tag:reuters.com,0000:newsml_N19279043" standard="NewsML-G2" standardversion="2.1" version="609406403" xml:lang="en">

</itemMeta>
<contentMeta>

<subject qcode="N2:BNK"/>
<headline>My Headline</headline>
<by>ABC</by>
</contentMeta>
<contentSet>
<inlineXML contenttype="application/xhtml+html" wordcount="881">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title/>
</head>
<body>
<p>Paragraph A</p>
<p>* Paragraph A</p>
</body>
</html>
</inlineXML>
</contentSet>
</newsItem>
</itemSet>
</newsMessage>

I would like my result XML to be something like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<MyData>
<MyTransmitId>tag:123.com,0000:newsml_N19279043:609406403</MyTransmitId>
<MyHeadline>My Headline</MyHeadline>
<MyContent>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title/>
</head>
<body>
<p>Paragraph A</p>
<p>* Paragraph A&

Hi, I would use the following stylesheet:

<?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" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes" omit-xml-declaration="yes" media-type="text/html"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:element name="MyData">
<xsl:element name="MyTransmitId">
<xsl:value-of select="//*[name()='transmitId']"/>
</xsl:element>
<xsl:element name="MyHeadline">
<xsl:value-of select="//*[name()='headline']"/>
</xsl:element>
<xsl:element name="MyContent">
<xsl:copy-of select="//*[name()='inlineXML']/*"/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

I am not sure this is the best way, but it seems to generate the desired output Erik

Thanks a lot Erik! This is exactly what I want. I happened to get another solution, I posted here for the benefits of others:
