that says take the next element and then take its startNum attribute,
so if the next element hasn't got such an attribute you get nothing.
you want the startNum attribute of the next element that has one

<xsl:value-of select="following::*[(_at_)startNum][1]/@startNum

Out of curiosity, would it work to say
  <xsl:value-of select="(following::*/@startNum)[1]" />
?
I think so, but I often get tripped up by those positional predicates.
