Dan,
I can see a problem in your XML.Its not a problem If its a typo . Your XML
is not well formed because you have missspelt <value> as <va!lue>
I am putting *** around where I think you have misspelt
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Sales><Summary><Employee><value>Gazlay-Martin,
Janet</value></Employee><Module><value>101</value></Module><ResignTotalQuota
<value>8686333</value></ResignTotalQuota><NewTotalQuota><value>263844006.92
5</value></NewTotalQuota><StrategicTotalQuota><value>60794058.915</value></S
trategicTotalQuota><TotalTotalQuota><value>272530339.925</value></TotalTotal
Quota><NewBucketQuota><value>0</value></NewBucketQuota><ResignTotalObjective
<value>0</value></ResignTotalObjective><NewTotalObjective><value>181000000<

e></PercentStrategicTotal><PercentTotalTotal><value>150.56</value></PercentT
otalTotal><PercentNewBucket>
***<va!
lue>0</value></PercentNewBucket><JobTitleCode><value>BSEM</value></JobTitleC
ode><MarketSegmentCode><value>1</value></MarketSegmentCode><RowCounter><valu
e>368</value></RowCounter></Summary>
If it is an exact copy then it is wrong ....try to change and see. It should
normally get you an exception if the XML is not wellformed
Hope this helps

Subject: Re: [xsl] filtering XML file using starts-with
You are exactly right about the pretty print and I suspect right about the
rest. However, I am still getting no results back. Here is the exact XML
copied from notepad this time:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Sales><Summary><Employee><value>Gazlay-Martin,
Janet</value></Employee><Module><value>101</value></Module><ResignTotalQuota
<value>8686333</value></ResignTotalQuota><NewTotalQuota><value>263844006.92
5</value></NewTotalQuota><StrategicTotalQuota><value>60794058.915</value></S
trategicTotalQuota><TotalTotalQuota><value>272530339.925</value></TotalTotal
Quota><NewBucketQuota><value>0</value></NewBucketQuota><ResignTotalObjective
<value>0</value></ResignTotalObjective><NewTotalObjective><value>181000000<
/value></NewTotalObjective><NewBucketObjective><value>0</value></NewBucketOb
jective><StrategicTotalObjective><value>18100000</value></StrategicTotalObje
ctive><TotalTotalObjective><value>181000000</value></TotalTotalObjective><Pe
rcentResignTotal><value>0</value></PercentResignTotal><PercentNewTotal><valu
e>145.77</value></PercentNewTotal><PercentStrategicTotal><value>335.87</valu
e></PercentStrategicTotal><PercentTotalTotal><value>150.56</value></PercentT
otalTotal><PercentNewBucket><va!
lue>0</value></PercentNewBucket><JobTitleCode><value>BSEM</value></JobTitleC
ode><MarketSegmentCode><value>1</value></MarketSegmentCode><RowCounter><valu
e>368</value></RowCounter></Summary>
And here is the for-each line I am using
<xsl:for-each select="Sales/Summary[starts-with(Module/value,'10')]">
Thanx for your help, do you ahve a book recomendation BTW?

- <Module>
<value>101</value>
</Module>
You posted an IE6 "pretty print" view of the file (I would guess)
not your real input.
which means I'm still lacking information, however if the source
does really look like that (without the "-") then the string value of
Module is
newline space space 1 0 1 newline space space
so doesn't start with "10"
You probably want (starts-with(Module/value,'10')
