Don't know what is the exact XML you have. Perhaps you have a XML
something like following:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<divisions>
 <division>
   <x/>
   <body>
     <body-contents/>
   </body>
 </division>
 <!-- may have more division tags, as above -->
 <division type="appendix">
   <topic id="cfmrk">
     <title>Glossary</title>
     <body>
       <p>The terms in this glossary cover topics
related to this manual. Alternate naming is included for reference.</p>
       <p><i>  <b>Abbreviations</b>    </i></p>
       <p><i>  <b>AC:</b></i>  alternating current</p>
       <p><i>  <b>AGP:</b></i>  accelerated graphics port</p>
       <p><i>  <b>ANSI: </b></i> American National
Standards Institute</p>
       <p><i><b>APM:</b></i>  advanced power manager</p>
    </body>
  </topic>
  <topic id="Blank">
    <title>A</title>
    <body>
      <p><b>AccuPoint: </b> A pointing device integrated into the TOSHIBA
computer keyboard.</p>
      <p><b>adaptor:  </b>A device that provides an interface between two
dissimilar electronic devices. For example, the AC adaptor modifies the
power from a wall outlet for use by the computer. This term also refers to
the add-in circuit cards that control external devices, such as video
monitors and magnetic tape devices. </p>
      <p><b>allocate: </b> To assign a space or function for a
specific task.</p>
      <p><b>alphanumeric:</b>  Keyboard characters including letters,
numbers and
other symbols, such as punctuation marks or mathematical symbols.</p>
    </body>
  </topic>
</division>
</divisions>

To transform this to the desired XML, the stylesheet will be (I think
you want to produce glossary where division has a attribute
type="appendix"):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>

<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>

<xsl:template match="*">
 <xsl:copy>
   <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
   <xsl:apply-templates/>
 </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="division[@type='appendix']">
 <division>
   <xsl:copy-of select="@*" />
   <xsl:for-each select="topic">
     <topic>
       <xsl:copy-of select="@*" />
       <xsl:copy-of select="title" />
       <xsl:apply-templates select="body" />
     </topic>
   </xsl:for-each>
 </division>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="body[ancestor::division[@type='appendix']]">
 <glossarylist>
   <xsl:apply-templates select="p[not(text())]/i/b" />
   <xsl:apply-templates select="p[text()]/i/b" />
   <xsl:apply-templates select="p[not(text())]/b" />
   <xsl:apply-templates select="p[text()]/b" />
 </glossarylist>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="p[not(text())]/i/b">
 <glossarydiv>
   <xsl:value-of select="." />
 </glossarydiv>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="p[text()]/i/b">
 <glossaryterm>
   <xsl:value-of select="." />
 </glossaryterm>
 <glossarydef>
   <xsl:value-of select="../../text()" />
 </glossarydef>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="p[not(text())]/b">
 <glossarydiv>
   <xsl:value-of select="." />
 </glossarydiv>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="p[text()]/b">
 <glossaryterm>
   <xsl:value-of select="." />
 </glossaryterm>
 <glossarydef>
   <xsl:value-of select="../text()" />
 </glossarydef>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

The output produced is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Hi,

Yes, having other divisions also in the xml? So, needs to update only the
part of xml where glossary needed.
