Is it possible to use XSLT to remove elements with duplicate values from an XML file?

Nicolás Lichtmaier XSLT does not currently provide a direct way of extracting unique nodes from a nodeset but that feature can be emulated. The trick would be to ask at each node if there has been another one. This would work:
<xsl:template match="@*|node()"> <xsl:if test="not(node()) or not(preceding-sibling::node()[.=string(current())])"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/> </xsl:copy> </xsl:if> </xsl:template>
