what i have been trying
<xsl:template match="sc:entry[(child::*[local-name()='p'][#type='_para'])]">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="#*|node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="sc:entry[(child::*[local-name()='p'][#type='_para'])]">
but this remove the entire node, I just want to remove attribute of p whose parent is entry
Is there any way I can only remove attribute of those value = "remove_it"
Thanks in advance!!

Answer 1

I just want to remove attribute of p whose parent is entry
Consider this example:
XML
<root>
<row>
<entry>
<p type="some1">
<t>This is text</t>
</p>
</entry>
<entry>
<p type="remove_it">
<t/>
</p>
</entry>
<entry>
<p type="remove_it">
<t/>
</p>
</entry>
</row>
<row>
<entry>
<p type="remove_it">
<t/>
</p>
</entry>
<entry>
<p type="keep_it">
<t/>
</p>
</entry>
<entry>
<p type="remove_it">
<t/>
</p>
</entry>
<entry>
<p type="remove_it">
<t/>
</p>
</entry>
</row>
</root>
XSLT 3.0
<xsl:stylesheet version="3.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:mode on-no-match="shallow-copy"/>
<xsl:template match="entry/p/#type[.='remove_it']"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Result
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<root>
<row>
<entry>
<p type="some1">
<t>This is text</t>
</p>
</entry>
<entry>
<p>
<t/>
</p>
</entry>
<entry>
<p>
<t/>
</p>
</entry>
</row>
<row>
<entry>
<p>
<t/>
</p>
</entry>
<entry>
<p type="keep_it">
<t/>
</p>
</entry>
<entry>
<p>
<t/>
</p>
</entry>
<entry>
<p>
<t/>
</p>
</entry>
</row>
</root>
Note:
You should never have to use a hack like *[local-name()='p']. If your input nodes are in a namespace, then deal with the namespace properly - see: XSLT Transform doesn't work until I remove root node.
