I'm guessing that you want something like this:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="html"/>
<xsl:template match="head">
<h1>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</h1>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="list">
<ul>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</ul>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="item">
<li>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</li>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
<xsl:value-of select="child::item"/> in your "list" template will only
give you the text values of those child nodes. You were missing the HTML
structure. Also, you can omit the <xsl:value-of/> here; the built-in
template for text nodes is to select the value of the node. Just
<xsl:apply-templates/> inside an HTML element in your template.

Subject: Generate a List
Hi,
I am trying to use the XSLT to generate something simple like a list
and output it to HTML with <ul> and <li> tags.
This is my XSLT:
<xsl:template match="head">
<p>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</p>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="list">
<xsl:value-of select="child::item"/>
</xsl:template>
My XML:
<head>Things to do</head>
<list>
<item>Wash the dog</item>
<item>Take out the trash</item>
<item>Check out books on XSLT</item>
<item>Go to the bank</item>
<item>Pay bills</item>
</list>
Output:
<p class="">Things to do</p>
Wash the dog Take out the trash Check out books on XSLT Go to the
bank Pay bills
<br>
Can anyone please tell me what is wrong with my code?
Thanks to those who can help.
Alice
