Thanks a lot for this. However, this leads me to another question;
what's the difference between
match="Object[PropertyList/Property[Name='Property1][Value='abc']]"
and
match="Object[PropertyList/Property[Name='Property1 and Value='abc']]"
Which one is preferred and why?

Subject: RE: [xsl] Restrictions on pattern for the match attribute of
the xsl:template element
I have an XML document like this:
============================
<Objects>
<Object>
<PropertyList>
<Property>
<Name>Property1</Name>
<Value>abc</Value>
</Property>
</PropertyList>
</Object>
<Object>
<PropertyList>
<Property>
<Name>Property1</Name>
<Value>xyz</Value>
</Property>
</PropertyList>
</Object>
</Objects>
============================
and I want to extract all <Object> elements except the ones that have
[Name='Property1' and Value='abc'] (there are several such
restrictions on Name / Value pairs). I tried the following but the 2nd
match pattern is not allowed in XSLT:
<xsl:template
match="/Objects/*/PropertyList/Property[./Name='Property1'
and ./Value='abc']/../.." priority="1"/>
How could I achieve this?
match="Object[PropertyList/Property[Name='Property1][Value='abc']]"
