XPath - Nó de Comentário
O comentário pode ser facilmente recuperado do elemento.
comment() - obtém o valor do atributo "nome".
<xsl:value-of select = "/class/student/preceding-sibling::comment()"/>
Exemplo
Neste exemplo, criamos um documento XML de amostra students.xml e seu documento de folha de estilo students.xsl que usa as expressões XPath.
A seguir está o XML de amostra usado.
students.xml
<?xml version = "1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type = "text/xsl" href="students.xsl"?>
<class>
<!-- Comment: This is a list of student -->
<student rollno = "393">
<firstname>Dinkar</firstname>
<lastname>Kad</lastname>
<nickname>Dinkar</nickname>
<marks>85</marks>
</student>
<student rollno = "493">
<firstname>Vaneet</firstname>
<lastname>Gupta</lastname>
<nickname>Vinni</nickname>
<marks>95</marks>
</student>
<student rollno = "593">
<firstname>Jasvir</firstname>
<lastname>Singh</lastname>
<nickname>Jazz</nickname>
<marks>90</marks>
</student>
</class>
