I have xml with a section structured like this:

<body>content here</body>
<body>content here</body>
<body>content here</body>

I'd like to change all of the body elements to <p> tags and group all of those original body elements (now <p> tags) into a parent element.

Write a template for the parent element of those 'body' elements. Assuming it is named 'foo'
<xsl:template match="foo">
<field name="body">
<xsl:apply-templates select="body"/>
</field>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="body">
<p>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</p>
</xsl:template>

If the 'foo' element has further children and you want to process them as well then you need to do that in the match="foo" template but obviously it depends on what you want to do with those elements exactly.
