Since you gave no context it's hard to guess which. > <xsl:for-each select='key('nodeInfoMap', @name)//nodeInfo'> -- DID NOT > WORK That one will iterate over all the nodeInfo descendents of the nodeInfo nodes that are returned by the key. Yor nodeinfo nodes do not have any nested nodeinfo elements, so thi sis empty. So the first one should work if you are in a context where the name attribute gives the key value, but your sample doc didn't seem to have any such attribute.
