Well the answer I look for is that with xsl:apply-templates the processing is controlled by the structure of the input document, while with xsl:for-each the processing is controlled by the stylesheet. If you understand and can describe what happens when you call <xsl:apply-templates/> then you're doing better than most.

I think its good practice to only use xsl:for-each to change the context node.
