RE: reading ascendants except the first one (NEWBIE)

I think you mean descendants??
			
> <xsl:for-each select="//basisdaten/kunde">

>  <xsl:for-each select="*">					

Change the second for-each to <xsl:for-each select="*[not(self::titel)]">.
This will filter out all the titles. Alternatively, if it is the first
element you want to remove, regardless of the element name, use
<xsl:for-each select="*[position() != 1]">.

Also, you might like to avoid using // in your first XPath if you can, as
it's expensive.

Cheers,

Stuart
