Re: [xsl] template match : node-set paring through multiple-axis relationships

keys use a match pattern, like xsl:template.
Starting a match with // is never needed.

<xsl:template match="abc"

matches all abc elements that are children of something


<xsl:template match="//abc"

matches all abc elements that are descendents of the root.

These two sets of abc elements are the same,
