Can I access elements in the output tree?

[Peter Paulus <paulus at neroc dot nl>]

Hi,

Would it be possible to insert elements in the output tree and subsequently
access them? If so, would there be any restrictions?

Here is the general setup:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='ISO-8859-1'?>
<xsl:transform version='1.0'
    xmlns:xsl='http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform'
    xmlns:qxml='urn:neroc:qxml'
    xmlns='urn:neroc:qxml'
    exclude-result-prefixes='#default qxml'
>

<xsl:output 
    method='xml' 
    encoding='ISO-8859-1'
    omit-xml-declaration='no'
    media-type='application/qxml'
/>

<xsl:template match='/'>
<xsl:element name='Name'>John Doe</xsl:element>
<xsl:message>
<xsl:value-of select='descendant-or-self::node()/Name'/>
</xsl:message>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:transform>

Xalan accepts this as a valid XSLT-document, but doesn't produce the desired
output.

With king regards,
Peter Paulus
