Apply-templates works on a node-set, but your expression returns a string (what else would you expect "substring-after" to return?). > Can anyone guide me how can I write the result of this substring-after > thing into an XML file. Do I have to use any other tag rather than > xsl:apply-templates or what? Without knowing any more details of what you are starting with and what you want to achieve, we can only offer some generic advice. In this case, you need to qualify or filter the nodes you select. You could do this somewhat as follows - select ="*[substring-after(@rdf:about,'#')]" This would select all nodes, whatever their names, that contain an rdf:about attribute that has some text after the "#" character.
