Subject: text values of nodes

I have some XML (unfortunately I did not generate it, else I would have created it in a manner that was easier to transform) that is extremely nested, and am having problems extracting elements of it vis XSL

can I grab just the group value (abc)?

when I try to grab <xsl:value-of select="group"/> I get back all the values contained within the entire GROUP node (abc 8873 X32 20020430 C 6 P)

is there a way to work with this poorly formed XML?


<group>abc
   <key>8873
       <idcode>X32
           <date>20020430
               <rectype>C
                   <IST>6</IST>
                   <PRIMISS>P</PRIMISS>
               </rectype>
           </date>
       </idcode>
   </key>
</group>
