However, if the copied node is subsequently attached as a child to a new element, the final copy of the node inherits its base URI from its parent node, unless this is overridden using an xml:base attribute. "" So it says only "as a child to a new element". I guess document nodes be added here too, because the same note occurs in all other node constructors. For example, xsl:element says: "" Note, however, that this is only relevant when creating parentless elements. When the new element is copied to form a child of an element or document node, the base URI of the new copy is taken from that of its new parent. "" Thanks to David Carlisle to help me finding this. --drkm 7999 1 mike 2006-01-27 00:42:27 +0000 *** Bug 2773 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** 8002 2 mike 2006-01-27 08:44:13 +0000 added a title (summary) 8068 3 mike 2006-01-31 17:19:32 +0000 This clarification has now been added to the relevant sentence under xsl:copy and xsl:copy-of.
