You could have fooled me:-)


<General>
   ...
   <Author>
	<vCard ...> ... </vCard>
   </Author>
   ...
</General>
  

it's impossible to answer your question without knowing what the first
and last ... are. So two guesses and two answers.

A:

<General>
   <x>
   <Author>
	<vCard ...> ... </vCard>
   </Author>
   </x>
</General>
  

B:


<General>
   <x/>
   <Author>
	<vCard ...> ... </vCard>
   </Author>
   <x/>
</General>
  

Now for A the answer is that Author isn't a child of General
so
 <xsl:template match="General">
 <xsl:for-each select="Author">

selects nothing. You want select="x/Author"

For B the answer is, don't know, looks about right, unless the ...
here
 <xsl:template match="vCard">
 ...
 </xsl:template>
evaluates to nothing for some other reason.
