Fix this first, according to the hint in the other post.
Actually, the rest of the code you provided is standard
XSLT rather that WD-XSL.
.....

That's convoluten and wont do what you expect. All the
XPath expressions are relative to the context node, which
means that the first as well as the second xsl:value-of
result in the same text, specifically "Hi I am in a directory..."
(trailing whitespace replaced by ellipsis).
You have to think in terms of traversing a tree rather
than pulling text snippet from a string.

The following will be closer to your requirements:

  <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
    "xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
    <xsl:template match="/">
      <html><head><title/</head>><body>
        <xsl:apply-templates/>
      </body></html>
    </xsl:template>
    <xsl:template match="directory">
      <xsl:apply-templates/>
      <br/>
    </xsl:template>
    <xsl:template match="subdirectory">
      <font color="red">
        <xsl:apply-templates/>
      </font><br/>
    </xsl:template>
    <xsl:template match="file">
      <font color="blue">
        <xsl:apply-templates/>
      </font><br/>
    </xsl:template>
  </xsl:stylesheet>

This will omit some line breaks. Adding the following template
    <xsl:template match="text()">
      <xsl:apply-templates/><br/>
    </xsl:template>
will probably fix this for your sample code but may have unexpected
side effects in more general cases.
