You can add any condition as you like. To check for player/@pword just
change this line:
<xsl:apply-templates select="node()[not(self::text())]|text()[not($id &gt;=
$varFrom and $id &lt;= $varTo)]|@*"/>

To this:
<xsl:apply-templates select="node()[not(self::text())]|text()[not($id &gt;=
$varFrom and $id &lt;= $varTo and ancestor::player/@pword =
$varPword)]|@*"/>

The text()[not(condition)] will copy any text() node when not(condition) is
true, so you'll have to set condition=(you conditions to copy text)
In this case these conditions are:

$id greater or iqual to $varFrom
AND
$id smaller or iqual to $varTo
AND
Ancestor::player/@pword iqual to $varPword

We can add any others and wrap them all with a not(...) because you want to
delete those that match

Hope this helps you.
