RE: [xsl] apply templates which have a child node containing specific text

Won't this do what you want?
<xsl:template match="res/entrydata/text[text()='main title']">
<!-- Your stuff here -->
</xsl:template>

Given this xml:

I would like to select (apply templates) those <res> elements which have 
<text> tag (1 level down from <entrydata columnnumber="0">) containing a 
specific string. I am not sure how to go about selecting 2 children down 
from the res element as a predicate (which would go in the select statement 
of apply-templates).

e.g. I would like to select a <res> element which has a <text> element 
containing "main title" in it. The example above includes this string in one 
of the res tags.
