XSL equivalent sought.

[DPawson@xxxxxxxxxxx]

in xsl I can write
'get me the contents of element named x,
and find it from the root

select="/frontmatter/date"/>

Whats the equivalent of 'go to root' in DSSSL,
since the date element is only two levels down
from the root.
Then I can do a 
 (process-node-list (select-elements (children (children (current-node)))
date)))

TIA, DaveP
