Dap:Attribute Extension Example 5

Example 5

Where we take the "mingling" too far and it breaks. We attempt to multiply wrap the value of a dap:Attribute with a wcs:Title element:

               <Attribute name="standard_name" type="String">
                   <value><ows:Title>surface_eastward_sea_water_velocity</ows:Title></value>
               </Attribute>

And this breaks our ability to easily use automation to extract the (in this example DAP2) content

Namespace Blocking Transform

Returns all elements NOT in the DAP2 namespace. Or in other words, discard elements in the DAP2 namespace:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
               xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
               xmlns:dap="http://xml.opendap.org/ns/DAP2" >
   <xsl:output method='xml' version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' indent='yes'/>

   <xsl:strip-space elements="*" />

   <xsl:template match="*">
       <xsl:choose>
           <xsl:when test="namespace-uri()!='http://xml.opendap.org/ns/DAP2'">
               <xsl:copy >
                   <xsl:call-template name="textAndattributes" />
                   <xsl:apply-templates />
               </xsl:copy>
           </xsl:when>
           <xsl:otherwise>
               <xsl:apply-templates />
           </xsl:otherwise>
       </xsl:choose>
   </xsl:template>

   <xsl:template  match="@*|text()" />

   <xsl:template name="textAndattributes" ><xsl:copy-of select="text()|@*" /></xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Result

Produces a correct wcs:CoverageDescrition element:
