Because you said you are using MSXSL, you need to add some default templates
required by the current spec before David Carlisle's templates will work:

<!-- default template for root or element node -->
<xsl:template><xsl:apply-templates/></xsl:template>

<!-- default template for text or attribute node -->
<xsl:template match="text()|@*"><xsl:value-of/></xsl:template>
