In the below sample, i'm interested in the "BLUE" categories.  I still
want to bring back the original XML source but omit everything not
"BLUE".  See the FOO cat="GREEN", it contains a cat="BLUE"... of
course I would not expect to return this element since the parent
element cat is "GREEN".


Just insert an empty template that matches all non-BLUE elements:


<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>


<xsl:template match="*[@cat != 'BLUE']"/>

<xsl:template match="@* | node()">
   <xsl:copy>
     <xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()"/>
   </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

(notice that "*[not(@cat='BLUE')]" would not work because the root element (without a 'cat' attribute) would then never be copied, neither would its children)
