Exactly. You just have multiple matches and the processor will decide
which one matches your input best. But you can do a lot inside it, using

xsl:for-each, xsl:copy-of, xsl:value-of, xsl:choose etc. Lookup any
manual to find out what instructions are valid. At www.w3schools.org
there's a basic tutorial on XSLT.
