Thanks.

I'm still confused by ".", "*", "node()", etc.  I've read all the
definitions, but somehow I can't grok them.  Any thoughts?

	I guess, like security best practices, my mindset is "don't
       allow it unless I explicitly ask for it."
	But I guess it doesn't work that way so I shouldn't fight it.


I typically begin every stylesheet with a template that looks like

<xsl:template match="*">
<xsl:message>Unsupported element: <xsl:value-of
select="name()"/></xsl:message> </xsl:template>


and so have to keep adding templates until my stylesheet stops moaning
on all test cases.
