not selecting child elements with same name as parent...


I have a tree like this:

<tab>link 1
 <tab>link 1.1</tab>
</tab>

when i use <xsl:value-of select="."/> on the first
level tab, it is ALSO grabbing the text in the child
<tab> elements as well...

so my result is:

<tab_level_1>link 1 link 1.1</tab_level_1>

I've found if I enclose the text in another element
name ie- <tab><text>link 1</text>
  <tab><text>link 1.1</text></tab>
</tab>

and use <xsl:value-of select="text"/> it works fine,
and only pulls what i want "link 1", but I'd rather
just grab the immediate text in <tab> level one,
without having to specify additional element names.

Does this make sense? Is this possible?
