Hi!

I have a couple of questions about Templates

Say that I have the following XML file:
<root>
	<foo>Shoo
		<bar>Beer</bar>
	</foo>
	<eggs>Ham
		<bar>Soap</bar>
	</eggs>
</root>

Using "match='/'" will give me the entire XML document

If I have "match='//bar'", and a corresponding "value-of", would I get both
"Beer" and "Soap" because "//" looks for any instance in the node of the
named element?

If my only templates are "match='/'" and "match='bar'", what would I get?
Aside of using "match='foo/bar'" and "match='eggs/bar'", how could I make
sure I get the <bar> under <foo> and not the one under <eggs>?
