[xsl] Newbie : conditional node move

[Godefroid Chapelle <gotcha at swing dot be>]

Hi all,

A question about a problem I tried to solve the whole yesterday evening...

I could not find enough information or apply it correctly even in Michael Kay's
book.

I have the following two cases:

1)
input

<AAA>
  <BBB>bbb</BBB>
  <CCC>ccc</CCC>
  <DDD>ddd</DDD>
  <EEE>eee</EEE>
</AAA>

wished output

<AAA>
  <DDD>
   <XXX>bbb</XXX>
    ddd</DDD>
  <EEE>eee</EEE>
</AAA>

2)
input

<AAA>
  <BBB>zzz</BBB>
  <CCC>ccc</CCC>
  <DDD>ddd</DDD>
  <EEE>eee</EEE>
</AAA>

output

<AAA>
  <DDD>ddd</DDD>
  <EEE>eee</EEE>
</AAA>

In words :
There are nodes I want to delete (ie CCC) : I can do that
There are nodes I want to copy (ie EEE) : I can do that also.

There is a node I want to copy (ie DDD) and modify conditionnally depending on
another node's value (ie BBB):
THIS IS WHAT I WAS NOT ABLE TO DO.

I tried the following stylesheet:

 <xsl:template match="/">
  <xsl:apply-templates />
 </xsl:template>

<!-- copy all-->
 <xsl:template match="*">
  <xsl:copy>
   <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
   <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </xsl:copy>
 </xsl:template>

<!-- delete CCC-->
 <xsl:template match="inutilise">
 </xsl:template>

<!-- copy DDD and modify depending on BBB-->
<xsl:template match="DDD">
  <xsl:if test="/BBB='bbb'">
  <XXX><xsl:value-of select="/BBB"/></XXX>
  </xsl:if>
  <xsl:copy>
   <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
   <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </xsl:copy>
 </xsl:template>


I hope this is something someone can help me with or give me a pointer to a good
reference somewhere...

Thanks
