xsl first child
  When test="position()=1"
  Or
  When test="itemp[1]"

They do completely different things. The first will test if you are the
first node in the current node list (which is what the poster asked for)
but the second will test if the current node has a first itemp child
which is the same as asking if it has any itemp child ie is the same as 
test="itemp"
