Well, the problem is that I actually have code that tries to do this like:
<xsl:template match="/">
XXX<xsl:value-of select="name"/>YYY <br/>
...
Which output in the start of the result:
XXXYYY
(meaning that it doesn't get any value, but the rest of the document is output, so there does exist nodes).


What is wrong here?


By the way, is there a diffrence between <xsl:template match="/"> that I use and <xsl:template match="/*"> that you use?

Hope you can help me
Ragulf :)

Pickaxe,
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<test att1="" att2="" att3="">
</test>

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
	<xsl:output method = "html" encoding="Windows-1252" />

	<xsl:template match="/*">
		<html>
			<head></head>
			<body>My top level element is <xsl:value-of
select="name()" /><br/>
				  It's attributes are <xsl:for-each
select="@*">
				  	<xsl:value-of select="name()" />
				  </xsl:for-each>

	</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
