Re: extrat value from current node only.

Hi Emmanuel,
  Please try this XSL..

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> 

  <xsl:template match="items">
    <xsl:apply-templates select="item"/>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template match="item">
    title:<xsl:value-of
select="normalize-space(text())"/>
    description:<xsl:value-of select="description"/>
  </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

The output produced is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    title:title 1
    description:description 1
    title:title 2
    description:description 2

Also should'nt you use
<xsl:output method="text" /> ..? (unless you want a
XML output)

Regards,
Mukul
