XSLT <xsl:value-of> Element
Complete XSLT Element Reference
Definition and Usage
The <xsl:value-of> element element extracts the value of a selected node.
The <xsl:value-of> element can be used to select the value of an XML element
and add it to the output.
Note: The value of the required select attribute contains an XPath
expression. It works like navigating a file system where a forward slash (/)
selects subdirectories.
Syntax

select="expression"
