Thanks to Sameer and Josh for their suggestions,

Actually, I tried every way I could think of of adding:

<xsl:appy-templates select="quote"/>
and
<xsl:template match="quote">
  <xsl:value-of select="." />
</xsl:template>

to my xsl stylesheet unsuccessfully. If anyone is able to show me what the xsl file should look like with a display all quotes template above the table, I'd be very grateful (and promise to bother you no more!).

here is my xsl:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!-- Edited with XML Spy v4.2 -->
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<body>

  <h2>Your Selection</h2>
  <table border="1">
    <tr bgcolor="#9acd32">
      <th>Title</th>
      <th>Artist</th>
    </tr>
    <xsl:for-each select="catalog/cd">
    <tr>
      <td><xsl:value-of select="title"/>
	  </td>
      <xsl:choose>
      <xsl:when test="artist = 'Book'">
         <td bgcolor="#ff00ff">
         <xsl:value-of select="name"/>
         </td>
      </xsl:when>
      <xsl:when test="artist = 'Journal Article'">
         <td bgcolor="#cccccc">
         <xsl:value-of select="journal"/></td>
      </xsl:when>
      <xsl:otherwise>
         <td><xsl:value-of select="artist"/></td>
		
      </xsl:otherwise>
      </xsl:choose>
	  </tr>
    </xsl:for-each>
  </table>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

and here is my xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!-- Edited with XML Spy v4.2 -->
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="cdcatalog_choose2.xsl"?>
<catalog>
	<cd>
		<title>Empire Burlesque</title>
		<artist>Book</artist>
		<name>Transaction Yeah</name>
		<country>USA</country>
		<company>Columbia</company>
		<price>10.90</price>
		<year>1985</year>
		<quote>I am cool</quote>
		<quote>You are cool</quote>
		<quote>We are cool</quote>
	</cd>
	<cd>
		<title>Hide your heart</title>
		<artist>Journal Article</artist>
		<journal>Transactions</journal>
		<country>UK</country>
		<company>CBS Records</company>
		<price>9.90</price>
		<year>1988</year>
	</cd>
	<cd>
		<title>Greatest Hits</title>
		<artist>Dan Palmer</artist>
		<country>USA</country>
		<company>RCA</company>
		<price>9.90</price>
		<year>1982</year>
	</cd>
</catalog>

Best,
Dan

Subject:  Displaying multiple instances of the same tag

The xml I've been playing with looks like this:

<reference>
<title>Empire</title>
<artist>Book</artist>
<country>USA</country>
<company>Columbia</company>
<price>10.90</price>
<year>1985</year>
<quote>I am cool</quote>
<quote>You are cool</quote>
<quote>We are cool</quote>
</reference>

In xsl,  <xsl:value-of select="quote"/> of course displays only the
first quote.  Can someone tell me how to specify in xsl which and how
many of the quotes to display in xml?  I searched the archives and the
other recommended FAQ page unsuccessfully.

Best,
Dan Palmer
