XSL copy-of problem with extraction of a node based on child elem ent

I wish to extract one subnode from an XML file based on the value of a child
element in the node. In this case a complete copy of a property node based
on the value of the index element. My efforts so far have either resulted in
the index element only or the entire XML file.

 

Thanks for your help.
