if you use text() you get 'first' (*Fist child node*) (We call it Small
content)
no text() is child::text() and selects all child text nodes, your
example hgd two of thise first and third,
But what we are looking for is a way to express it as an XPath, I think
there is no way using XPath 1.0,
Not so the Xpath 1 expresion text() slects all the text nodes.
Your problem is XSLT not Xpath.
It is value-of that is giving you the first node only.
If you want all of them use copy-of.
<xsl:value-of select = "for $x in /child::A/child::text() return
$x/current()"/>
see you've used value of again, that onnly gives you the first node.
You want
<xslcopy-of select="text()"/>
