RE: [xsl] Output as per the filter is missing

Thanks Michael,
Once I use the <xsl:apply-templates> to a particular node in the
document (like <section> you have mentioned below), is it possible to
revert back to the earlier situation before applying
<xsl:apply-templates> ?

What I understand by using <xsl:apply-template> means filtering the
nodes in XML document four output?

Regards.

In XSLT 1.0, if you do <xsl:value-of select="xxx"> and xxx selects more
than one node, only the first node in the set is output. To iterate over
several nodes, use xsl:for-each or (better) xsl:apply-templates.

You are doing <xsl:for-each select="section">, but that's rather
pointless because there is only one section.

At this stage of the game, it's much better to get into the habit of
using apply-templates. Write a template rule for each element saying
what you want done with it, for example

<xsl:template match="para">
  <xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="section">
  <xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="message[@priority='warn']">
  <p><xsl:value-of select="."/></p>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="message[@priority='info']">
  <xsl:comment><xsl:value-of select="."/></xsl:comment> </xsl:template>
