Re: Re: [xslt transform & grouping] Using the Muenchia

  "Exception Details: System.Xml.Xsl.XsltException: 'xsl:apply-templates' 
  cannot be a child of 'xsl:stylesheet' element."


That error message seems clear enough, and any xslt tutorial will
confirm it's correctness: apply-templates can not be used at the top
level.


  I have also to remove quote marks from select=" ' food ' " so select=" food 
  " otherwise:



select=" ' food ' "

would evaluate to the string  space f o o d space which doesn't match
the attribute value in your source, which doesn't have spaces.
But given your quoted error message it would appear that you had put
that on an apply-templates, since it selects a string you get an error
message as apply-templates can only be applied to nodes.

select=" food "

selects an element with name food so since you do not have any <food>
elements it selects nothing and you get no output.
