Then your processor is broken ... your templates looked correct and I 
used them below to get the expected answer.

You don't say where you are in the tree when you try the above ... 
the above would give you "456" if your current node is <node> since 
<diff> satisfies the wild-card node test.

From where?  If from the top why not just use select="//result"?

I hope this helps.
