hello

this is my xml file
<entity-single><t id="501">ServiceID</t><t id="511">HandlerType</t><t id="521">ClassName</t><t id="531">CommandLine</t><t id="551">ServerProduct</t><t id="561">ExitCode</t><t id="571">RealCommunication</t></entity-single>

currently I am generating the file with copy-template and it copy all this part. (this is the part that copy)
<xsl:otherwise>
   <xsl:copy>
      <xsl:apply-templates />
   </xsl:copy>
</xsl:otherwise>

I would like to know, if I can after copying it, to add to each 't' attribute a string (hello for example) so the new out put will be
<entity-single><t id="501">helloServiceID</t><t id="511">helloHandlerType</t><t id="521">helloClassName</t><t id="531">helloCommandLine</t><t id="551">helloServerProduct</t><t id="561">helloExitCode</t><t id="571">helloRealCommunication</t></entity-single>

can be either by use of a new function that just copy the string or maybe an xsl command that can add only for the 't' element the string.

thanks

Add the template rule

<xsl:template match="t/text()">
  <xsl:text>Hello</xsl:text>
  <xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:template>

it may sound stupid, but when I call the template, it add in the end each entity and its prefix (this is the out put
<iNaN>Service ID</iNaN>
<iNaN>Handler Type</iNaN>
<iNaN>Class Name</iNaN>
<iNaN>Command Line</iNaN>
<iNaN>Server Product</iNaN>
<iNaN>Exit Code</iNaN>
<iNaN>Real Communication</iNaN>
<iNaN>Instance</iNaN>
<iNaN>Server</iNaN>
<iNaN>Client Product</iNaN>
<iNaN>Client Host</iNaN>
</entity-single>
<entity>!~graphTitlePrefix!~Service IDs!~graphTitlePrefix!~Handler Types!~graphTitlePrefix!~Class Names!~graphTitlePrefix!~Command Lines!~graphTitlePrefix!~Server Products!~graphTitlePrefix!~Exit Codes!~graphTitlePrefix!~Real Communications!~graphTitlePrefix!~Instances!~graph TitlePrefix!~Servers!~graphTitlePrefix!~Client Products!~graphTitlePrefix!~Client Hosts

I believe I am not calling the template corect or that I am missing something.
in my xsl I called the template this way
...
    <xsl:otherwise>
       <xsl:copy>
        <xsl:apply-templates select = "t/text()" />
           <xsl:apply-templates />
       </xsl:copy>
    </xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:template>


<xsl:template match="t/text()">
  <xsl:text>!~graphTitlePrefix!~</xsl:text>
  <xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:template>

am I not calling the template correct?

It's displaying twice because you're applying templates twice

  <xsl:apply-templates select = "t/text()" />
  <xsl:apply-templates />

You don't need to add an apply-templates call to your existing code provided that your existing code is already doing a recursive descent of the tree (all the way down to the text nodes) using apply-templates without parameters. You haven't shown your whole code so I can't be sure this is the case, but it looks like it from the evidence of the output.
