RE: [xsl] not getting expected matches

["Crouch, Luke H." <Luke.Crouch@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

this is the full xsl code:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
	<!-- overload the text template,
		do NOT automatically pass-thru text -->
	<xsl:template match="text()">
	</xsl:template>
	<xsl:template match="/">
		<xsl:apply-templates/>
	</xsl:template>
	<!-- for all SEG*/NAME elements, display the name, followed by a * -->
	<xsl:template match="*[starts-with(name(), 'SEG')]/NAME">
		<xsl:value-of select="."/><xsl:text>*</xsl:text>
	</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

will that not go thru and apply all the templates that have matches?
