Yes, that's the output I was looking for, but until Wendell pointed out
my matching error, I couldn't get it.

Thanks for the help.

The stylesheet I posted when applied to XML (the XML you posted was not
well-formed, a /select> tag was missing, which I corrected):

<xhtml>
<div style="width:570px;text-align:center;">
 <img src="/path/to/img.jpg" width="570" height="100" border="0"
alt="Alt text"/>
 <p style="margin:10px 0 0 0;" class="class">Display copy<br/>  <a
href="/link">Linked text</a><br/>  <form>
  <select style="margin-top:0px;" size="1" name="selectMenu">
   <option value="#" selected="selected">Choose an option</option>
   <option value="one.html">One</option>
   <option value="two.html">Two</option>
  </select>
 </form>
 </p>
</div>
<br/>
</xhtml>

Produces output:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xhtml>
<div style="width:570px;text-align:center;">
 <img src="http//images.example.com/path/to/img.jpg" width="570"
height="100" bo rder="0" alt="Alt text"/>  <p style="margin:10px 0 0 0;"
class="class">Display copy<br/>  <a
href="http//www.example.com/link">Linked text</a> <br/>  <form>
  <select style="margin-top:0px;" size="1" name="selectMenu">
   <option value="#" selected="selected">Choose an option</option>
   <option value="one.html">One</option>
   <option value="two.html">Two</option>
  </select>
 </form>
 </p>
</div>
<br/>
</xhtml>

Isn't this what you want?

This looks more concise than the logic you have posted..

Your logic also seems correct (with a minor correction, as Wendell has
suggested)
