As Mike said, the code is OK.  So the questions are: 1) what does your
processor provide by way of a default template for elements; 2) are you
explicitly giving templates to match the children that are not being
processed within the variable?; 3) is the variable being instantiated in
a context where it has no children (if 'test2' is really being
processed, then the answer to that is no); 4) what happens if you
explicitly select the elements to process with, say, xsl:apply-templates
select="*"?
