Hi,

I guess ultimately the most elegant way to deal with it would be to provide
a few basic templates like

<xsl:template match="rule">
  <li class="strong"><xsl:value-of selecy="@type" /><br/>
    <span class="goldmedium"><xsl:apply-templates select="node()" /></span>
  </li>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="@* | node()">
  <xsl:copy>
    <xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()" />
  </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

then, this

> 	<ul>
>           	<xsl:for-each select="rules/rule">
> 	    <li class="strong"><xsl:value-of select="@type" /><br/>
> 		<span class="goldmedium"><xsl:value-of select="."
> /></span></li>
> 	</xsl:for-each>
> 	</ul>
>

becomes simply

<ul><xsl:apply-templates select="rules/rule" /></ul>

and, no matter what other nodes are nested in there somewhere, they will
always be copied along in the correct order.

Hope this helps!

Cheers,

Andreas
