You should use <xsl:copy-of> if you want a straight copy, or
<xsl:apply-templates> if you want to do any processing of the subtree.
You could have gone to any reference book and looked up "xsl:value-of"; you
might have had to follow a cross-reference to find an explanation of the
string-value of an element node.
