Your issues is actually that the default template is being applied for an
item element that doesn't match the distribution predicate.

Add <xsl:template match="item"/> which will have a lower precedence that the
distribution qualified one and produce nothing.

Hi list

I found the two methods yield slightly different
results w.r.t <![CDATA]>. In the first template match
the contents of CDATA is produced, but the <xsl:if
test method does not produce it. What's the
difference?

"item" looks like this:
<item distribution="both">
<![CDATA
contents of CDATA
]]
</item>

and the templates look like this:

<xsl:template match="item[@distribution!='both']"
...
...
</xsl:template>      ==> contents of CDATA show up

<xsl:template match="item">
   <xsl:if test="@distribution!='both'">
      ...
      ...
   </xsl:if>
</xsl:template>      ==> produces nothing (which is
what I want)
