Fwd: RE: suppressing default template rules

Hi All,
This could very much be elementary (sorry), but i
really didnt follow in which order the nodes were
processed and why i got the contents of firstname and
lastname elements printed twice before adding the
template rule for custdet element. Can anyone give
some tip as to what really happened with the two
cases.


Thanks in advance for ur patience
