subject lines.]

    I tried without success:
    ------------------------

    <xsl:template match="foo[normalize-space(text())='Value']">
    ....

That should work, it matches on those foo elements for which the first
text node has normalised value 'Value'.

so
<foo>Value     </foo>

and

<foo name="bar"> 
    	Value 
	<child>...</child>    
</foo>

would match, but

<foo name="bar"> 
	<child>...</child>    
    	Value 
</foo>

wouldn't as the first text node child of foo in this case is white space
(so an empty string after normalize-space)


Of course if another template matches the same nodes with higher
priority or import precedence, the template won't have any effect even
if this pattern does match.
