How do I specify “not equals to” when comparing strings in an XSLT ?
As Filburt says; but also note that it’s usually better to write test=”not(Count=”N/A”)” If there’s exactly one Count element they mean the same thing, but if there’s no Count, or if there are several, then the meanings are different. 6 YEARS LATER Since this answer seems to have become popular, but may be a little … Read more

Can one give me the example for “mode” of template in xsl?
It isn’t too meaningful to give a template both a name and a mode. The name attribute fully identifies a template and there cannot be two templates with the same name and different modes. The mode attribute allows the same nodes to be processed more than once, using different modes. Here is a short example: … Read more
In what order do templates in an XSLT document execute, and do they match on the source XML or the buffered output?
I love your question. You’re very articulate about what you do not yet understand. You just need something to tie things together. My recommendation is that you read “How XSLT Works”, a chapter I wrote to address exactly the questions you’re asking. I’d love to hear if it ties things together for you. Less formally, … Read more

Is there an online tester for xPath selectors? [closed]
I notice that the only “online” checker in the answers seems a bit clunky. It requires submission to a server, and it doesn’t handle namespaces properly. I thought I could do better, and that such a tool would be quite useful, so I made one. I realize it is slightly self-promoting to mention it here, … Read more
