RE: problem!!

Well all you need to do is add in Template rule

like so

<?xml version="1.0"?>
 <xsl:stylesheet
        xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl"
        xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40"
        result-ns="">

    <xsl:template match="/">
      <xsl:for-each select="persons/person">
      <h1><xsl:value-of select="firstname"/></h1>
      <h1><xsl:values-of select="lastname"/></h1>
      </xsl:for-each>
    </xsl:template>
 </xsl:stylesheet> 

You need to have a look at the hierarchy of using xsl elements
See Microsofts XML web site with regard to where you can put what
