apply-templates outputs content more times than expected - xslt

I'm new to XSLT and I can't understand why the root get processed twice (at least this is my interpretation of this output).
EDIT: (I'm using Saxon-HE with XSLT 2.0) but also tested with several online processes, getting always the same result.

(yes, with that amount of blank lines)
The output header div is perfectly fine, but inside the sections div that apply-templates renders all the information in the div header again but without the HTML tags.
Is there any XSLT processing detail am I missing? Does the template match sets the context in a way that the matched element is now considered a root or something like that?

The problem is here:
<div class="sections">
<xsl:apply-templates />
</div>
This applies templates to all child nodes of the current node (resume), including the personalInformation element.
As there is no matching template specified for personalInformation, the builtin XSLT templates are used by the XSLT processor and applying them results in outputting the concatenation of all descendent text-nodes of the personalInformation element.
Solution:
Replace:
<div class="sections">
<xsl:apply-templates />
</div>
with:
<div class="sections">
<xsl:apply-templates select="*[not(self::personalInformation)]" />
</div>
The result of the transformation now doesn't contain the noted problematic output:
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">

You haven't supplied an expected output, so I will guess at your intended outcome. Here is an XSLT 2.0 solution. If you need XSLT 1.0, please comment, and I can add. But just remember that if your transform engine is the browser, you have no excuse not to use XSLT 2.0. (Refer Saxon CE).

Explanation: Why were you getting root processed twice
In short because your <div class="sections"><xsl:apply-templates /></div> instruction did not specify a select attribute. The default selection applied, which was at that point the document root.

All the elements in your source document are in a namespace, but your stylesheet is written to process elements in no namespace. Welcome to the club, and join the 10m other people who have fallen into this trap. Essentially, you resume elements don't match the match="resume" template, so the default template kicks in, and this outputs the raw text with no tags. For the solution, search on "XSLT default namespace" and choose any one of about 1000 answers.
On re-reading, I see that you've used xpath-default-namespace="https://github.com/IME-SE8/XResume", which should fix the problem if you are using an XSLT 2.0 processor, or trigger an error if you're using an XSLT 1.0 processor. So it might be useful (actually, it's always useful) to tell us what processor you are using and how you are running it.

How do I add unit and chapter tags from my source files to my output file using XSLT?

I'm working on an XSLT script to create an ePub TOC from a source file. I am able to get the content I need for the HTML files themselves but I also need to include the <unit> and <chapter> tags as well. I'm stuck how to get those into my output file.

It sounds as if you want to start processing <xsl:apply-templates select="//s9ml:unit"/> instead of <xsl:apply-templates select="//s9ml:exhibit" />, then write a template
<xsl:template mmatch="s9ml:unit | s9ml:chapter">
<li>
<xsl:value-of select="s9ml:title"/>
<ol>
<xsl:apply-templates select="node() except s9ml:title"/>
</ol>
</li>
</xsl:template>
to make sure you get a hierarchy of nested, ordered lists.
The whole snippets assumes you want to output XHTML result elements and have therefore declared xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" on the xsl:stylesheet root element.

How do I find and replace text using XSLT 2.0?

Using XSLT 2.0, I need to replace:
<section class="ktp-explanation-section jasper-exclude">
with:
<section class="ktp-explanation-section atom-exclude">
But in all instances EXCEPT when the span tag below exists:
<span property="atom:tag" class="ktp-meta">behavioral_sciences</span>
I'm not very good with XLST. What would I need to include in my XSLT script to make that happen?
Here's an example of the HTML with the behavioral_sciences tag:

How to correctly use GMT on XSLT?

These two timestamps seems to use different GMTs on XSLT.
Timestamp #1
-> 1559780505287
-> 5/6/2019, 9:21:45 PM GMT-3 (dd/mm/yyyy)
Timestamp #2
-> 1562681762005
-> 9/7/2019, 11:16:02 AM GMT-3 (dd/mm/yyyy)
Using an online xslt test tool: https://xslttest.appspot.com/
After transformation, the timestamp #1 is 6/6/2019 and timestamp #2 is still 9/7/2019.
The timestamp #1 should be 5/6/2019.

I would suggest you convert your timestamp to a dateTime, adjust it to your timezone and then format it:

XSLT For-Each Wrapping every nth item in a div

I have a series of nodes that are direct child nodes to a parent I want to loop over those nodes but have them wrapped in 'groups' of 4... I'm probably not wording this very clearly so this might help;
<span class="child01">#nodename</span>
<span class="child02">#nodename</span>
<span class="child03">#nodename</span>
<span class="child04">#nodename</span>
<span class="child05">#nodename</span>
<span class="child06">#nodename</span>
<span class="child07">#nodename</span>
<span class="child08">#nodename</span>
..
<span class="child32">#nodename</span>
<span class="child33">#nodename</span>
..and so on
Goal
<div class="group">
<span class="child01">#nodename</span>
<span class="child02">#nodename</span>
<span class="child03">#nodename</span>
<span class="child04">#nodename</span>
</div>
<div class="group">
<span class="child05">#nodename</span>
<span class="child06">#nodename</span>
<span class="child07">#nodename</span>
<span class="child08">#nodename</span>
</div>
<div class="group">
..
<span class="child32">#nodename</span>
</div>
<div class="group">
<span class="child33">#nodename</span>
..and so on
I have tried variations on this idea - wrapping the lot in the open and closing group tags and every fourth loop drop in a new close / open pair
<div class="group">
<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/*">
<span>
<xsl:value-of select="#nodeName" />
</span>
<!--
=============================================================
After very 4th item
=============================================================
-->
<xsl:if test="position() mod 4 = 0">
<xsl:text></div><div class="page"></xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</div>
But essentially it seems XSLT won't let me start with a closing unmatched tag
The clkoset solution I ahve found so far is a 'fix' in jquery Wrapping a div around every three divs but I would rather not rely on javascript to format the page.
This transformation:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:param name="pNumCols" select="3"/>
<xsl:template match="/*">
<xsl:apply-templates select="span[position() mod $pNumCols = 1]"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="span">
<div>
<xsl:copy-of select=
".|following-sibling::span[not(position() > $pNumCols -1)]"/>
</div>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
when applied on the provided XML document:
<t>
<span class="child01">#nodename</span>
<span class="child02">#nodename</span>
<span class="child03">#nodename</span>
<span class="child04">#nodename</span>
<span class="child05">#nodename</span>
<span class="child06">#nodename</span>
<span class="child07">#nodename</span>
<span class="child08">#nodename</span> ..
<span class="child32">#nodename</span>
<span class="child33">#nodename</span>
</t>
produces the wanted result:
<div>
<span class="child01">#nodename</span>
<span class="child02">#nodename</span>
<span class="child03">#nodename</span>
</div>
<div>
<span class="child04">#nodename</span>
<span class="child05">#nodename</span>
<span class="child06">#nodename</span>
</div>
<div>
<span class="child07">#nodename</span>
<span class="child08">#nodename</span>
<span class="child32">#nodename</span>
</div>
<div>
<span class="child33">#nodename</span>
</div>
If like me you need to transform the source elements that are being divided by position, use xsl:for-each instead of xsl:copy:
<xsl:template match="span">
<ol>
<xsl:for-each select=".|following-sibling::span[not(position() > $pNumCols -1)]"/>
<li><xsl:value-of select="./text()"/></li>
</xsl:for-each>
</ol>
</xsl:template>
Faced by the same problem, that is wanting to output
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col">...</div>
<div class="col"/>...</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
...
</div>
</div>
from a CXML (Collection XML) file (http://gallery.clipflair.net/collection/activities.cxml - the data behind the PivotViewer display at http://gallery.clipflair.net/activity)
I coined up the following, based on other suggestions here, but using "mode" attribute of "template" and "apply-templates" XSL tags instead which make it cleaner I believe:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?altova_samplexml http://gallery.clipflair.net/collection/activities.cxml?>
<xsl:stylesheet
version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:cxml="http://schemas.microsoft.com/collection/metadata/2009"
exclude-result-prefixes="cxml"
>
<xsl:output method="html" version="4.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:param name="COLUMNS" select="2"/>
<!-- ########################### -->
<xsl:template match="/">

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css"/>
</head>
<body>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
<!-- ########################### -->
<xsl:template match="cxml:Collection">
<div class="container">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</div>
</xsl:template>
<!-- ########################### -->
<xsl:template match="cxml:Items">
<xsl:apply-templates select="cxml:Item[position() mod $COLUMNS = 1]" mode="row"/>
</xsl:template>
<!-- ########################### -->
<xsl:template match="cxml:Item" mode="row">
<div class="row">
<div>----------</div>
<xsl:apply-templates select=".|following-sibling::cxml:Item[position() < $COLUMNS]" mode="col"/>
</div>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="cxml:Item" mode="col">
<xsl:variable name="URL" select="#Href"/>
<xsl:variable name="FILENAME" select="cxml:Facets/cxml:Facet[#Name='Filename']/cxml:String/#Value"/>
<div class="col">
<xsl:value-of select="$FILENAME"/> --- <xsl:value-of select="$URL"/>
</div>
</xsl:template>
<!-- ########################### -->
<xsl:template match="*">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="text()|#*">
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
the output from the above when run in Altova XMLSpy tool (note that it uses altova_samplexml processor instruction to find the XML data) is:

XLST to insert HTML snippet into resulting HTML document

I have a docBook 4.4 XML file which is a user guide. I can use the (Maven) tools to convert that to HTML, PDF no problem. The problem i have is to insert an small HTML code snippet into the resulting HTML file.
I would like to add the following HTML snippet:
<xsl:template name="xxxxxxx">
<img src="images/pdfdoc.gif">PDF</img>
</xsl:template>
The resulting HTML code looks like this:
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
<title>Title</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="./hilfeKMV.css">
<meta name="generator" content="DocBook XSL Stylesheets V1.76.0">
<meta name="date" content="10/12/2011">
</head>
<body bgcolor="white" text="black" link="#0000FF" vlink="#840084"
alink="#0000FF">
<div lang="de" class="book"
title="Title">
<div class="titlepage">
<div>
<div>
<h1 class="title">
<a name="d0e1"></a>title
</h1>
</div>
</div>
<hr>
</div>
<div class="toc">
<p>
<b>TOC</b>
</p>
I would like to insert the HTML snippet before the <div class="toc">...So the question is how to solve this? I'm using docbook 1.76.0
I think there must be something like the following to solve that but i don't know how to set call-template etc. ?
<xsl:template name="xxxxxxx">
<xsl:variable name="top-anchor">
<xsl:call-template name="object.id">
<xsl:with-param name="object" select="/*[1]"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:variable>
<img src="images/pdfdoc.gif">PDF</img>
</xsl:template>
The <div class="toc"> element is generated by the template named "make.toc", which is called by "division.toc" (in autotoc.xsl). In order to output something immediately before this <div>, you can override the "division.toc" template in your customization layer. Just copy the original template and add your code, like this:
<xsl:template name="division.toc">
<xsl:param name="toc-context" select="."/>
<xsl:param name="toc.title.p" select="true()"/>
<img src="images/pdfdoc.gif" alt="PDF"/> <!-- Your stuff here -->
<xsl:call-template name="make.toc">
...
...
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:template>
I have found the correct location to insert the code i need.
In the titlepage.templates.xsl file i found the correct solution. I just taken the snippet from the titlepage.templates.xsl and enhanced it like the following:
<xsl:template name="book.titlepage.separator">
<div class="subsubtile">
<div class="pdflink">
<a href="./xxxx.pdf" title="Hilfeseite als PDF-Dokument">
<img src="images/pdfdoc.gif" border="0" alt="Hilfeseite als PDF-Dokument" />
<br />
PDF
</a>
</div>
</div>
<hr/>
</xsl:template>
