Use
<xsl:value-of select="group/text()"/>
It should return "abc"

Subject: [xsl] text values of nodes
I have some XML (unfortunately I did not generate it, else I would have
created it in a manner that was easier to transform) that is extremely
nested, and am having problems extracting elements of it vis XSL
can I grab just the group value (abc)?
when I try to grab <xsl:value-of select="group"/> I get back all the
values
contained within the entire GROUP node (abc 8873 X32 20020430 C 6 P)
is there a way to work with this poorly formed XML?
<group>abc
<key>8873
<idcode>X32
<date>20020430
<rectype>C
<IST>6</IST>
<PRIMISS>P</PRIMISS>
</rectype>
</date>
</idcode>
</key>
</group>
