This should be present in Dave's XSLT-FAQ.
Read about default rules (templates) processing.

====== I'm opening the xml file in IE6.0 and what I get is this =====
Hello OOPSWorld
=========== This may be obvious to everyone but I thought that a match
pattern of "link/aValue" would skip over the <aValue> child of
<constraint>
and get only <aValue> content that is a child of <link>.
TIA for any help with this... I've not been able to successfully wade
through all of the posts in biglist.
Best regards,
