> Well, the problem is that I actually have code that tries to do this like: > <xsl:template match="/"> > XXX<xsl:value-of select="name"/>YYY <br/> that selects the string value of an element <name>, or more likely it selects the empty string being the string value of the empty mode set. If you eant the name function you need select="name()" but then you will get the name of the root node which is empty. If you want the name of the child element of the root node you want name(*) > By the way, is there a diffrence between > <xsl:template match="/"> that I use and > <xsl:template match="/*"> that you use? Didn't we just go through that? / matches the root node /* matches any child elements of the root node.
