    <p>Essentially my XSLT isn't up to scratch , the field is a dropdown within Contour and I get it like so:</p> <pre><code>&lt;xsl:value-of select="$records//fields/child::* [name() = 'countryoforigin']"/&gt; </code></pre> <p>however this brings back values I don't want: </p> <blockquote> <p>3c7607b3-714c-47ec-8863-3919c6bdcfc9dc2c66c2-fa57-4e98-b26a-89b7ed041300#country of originStringUnited Kingdomld </p> </blockquote> <p>I only want the value, which is in this case "United Kingdom".</p> <p>Other fields that are input fields, bring back the value like so:</p> <pre><code>&lt;xsl:value-of select="$records//fields/child::* [name() = 'position']/.//value"/&gt; </code></pre> <p>But when the same is applied to the dropdown (name ='countryoforigin') - it doesnt work</p> <p>Any thoughts?</p> <p>J</p> <p><em>More snippets</em></p> <p>XML:</p> <pre><code> &lt;state&gt;Approved&lt;/state&gt; &lt;created&gt;2013-03-07T11:42:47&lt;/created&gt; &lt;updated&gt;2013-03-07T11:42:36&lt;/updated&gt; &lt;id&gt;325c5b27-9f0f-443b-89a2-af82bfd33356&lt;/id&gt; &lt;ip&gt;37.152.45.58&lt;/ip&gt; &lt;pageid url="/" name="Home"&gt;1051&lt;/pageid&gt; &lt;memberkey email="" login=""&gt;&lt;/memberkey&gt; &lt;fields&gt; &lt;position record="325c5b27-9f0f-443b-89a2-af82bfd33356" sortorder="3" pageindex="0" fieldsetindex="0"&gt; &lt;key&gt;ae7f2030-1a29-4b5a-9967-2c0c939a32cb&lt;/key&gt; &lt;fieldKey&gt;08d208c3-3c49-48ca-ac2a-5a50560a8351&lt;/fieldKey&gt; &lt;caption&gt;#position&lt;/caption&gt; &lt;datatype&gt;String&lt;/datatype&gt; &lt;values&gt; &lt;value&gt;&lt;![CDATA[aM]]&gt;&lt;/value&gt; &lt;/values&gt; &lt;/position&gt; &lt;name record="325c5b27-9f0f-443b-89a2-af82bfd33356" sortorder="0" pageindex="0" fieldsetindex="0"&gt; &lt;key&gt;d64d51e4-b663-4279-9e5b-473d47a8751b&lt;/key&gt; &lt;fieldKey&gt;af70f6b5-7b5c-4ac4-9643-1028a62d580a&lt;/fieldKey&gt; &lt;caption&gt;#name&lt;/caption&gt; &lt;datatype&gt;String&lt;/datatype&gt; &lt;values&gt; &lt;value&gt;&lt;![CDATA[amTest4]]&gt;&lt;/value&gt; &lt;/values&gt; &lt;/name&gt; &lt;countryoforigin record="325c5b27-9f0f-443b-89a2-af82bfd33356" sortorder="4" pageindex="0" fieldsetindex="0"&gt; &lt;key&gt;4eb2aeaf-2b21-498f-ba38-61d20da66339&lt;/key&gt; &lt;fieldKey&gt;dc2c66c2-fa57-4e98-b26a-89b7ed041300&lt;/fieldKey&gt; &lt;caption&gt;#country of origin&lt;/caption&gt; &lt;datatype&gt;String&lt;/datatype&gt; &lt;values&gt; &lt;value key="fd329420-b331-4a32-bd15-1cf2ca333c1f"&gt;&lt;![CDATA[United Kingdom]]&gt;&lt;/value&gt; &lt;/values&gt; &lt;/countryoforigin&gt; &lt;sendmemail record="325c5b27-9f0f-443b-89a2-af82bfd33356" sortorder="0" pageindex="0" fieldsetindex="1"&gt; &lt;key&gt;41b02cfb-ff5b-41ff-beed-6fbfdc7ad900&lt;/key&gt; &lt;fieldKey&gt;f81d8b63-86ea-4609-9925-f4f9ae20b82f&lt;/fieldKey&gt; &lt;caption&gt;#send me mail&lt;/caption&gt; &lt;datatype&gt;Bit&lt;/datatype&gt; &lt;values&gt; &lt;value&gt;&lt;![CDATA[True]]&gt;&lt;/value&gt; &lt;/values&gt; &lt;/sendmemail&gt; &lt;email record="325c5b27-9f0f-443b-89a2-af82bfd33356" sortorder="2" pageindex="0" fieldsetindex="0"&gt; &lt;key&gt;7763ac53-1569-43b4-8bab-c14bb30d2874&lt;/key&gt; &lt;fieldKey&gt;cccb1f0f-ff81-4a25-8d37-f3c7be6553f0&lt;/fieldKey&gt; &lt;caption&gt;#email&lt;/caption&gt; &lt;datatype&gt;String&lt;/datatype&gt; &lt;values&gt; &lt;value&gt;&lt;![CDATA[test@test.com]]&gt;&lt;/value&gt; &lt;/values&gt; &lt;/email&gt; &lt;jobtitle record="325c5b27-9f0f-443b-89a2-af82bfd33356" sortorder="1" pageindex="0" fieldsetindex="0"&gt; &lt;key&gt;4a8d98bb-407a-428b-a47c-c352653f3836&lt;/key&gt; &lt;fieldKey&gt;502ceee3-4025-41dc-a6c4-a95825f8a1fb&lt;/fieldKey&gt; &lt;caption&gt;#job title&lt;/caption&gt; &lt;datatype&gt;String&lt;/datatype&gt; &lt;values&gt; &lt;value&gt;&lt;![CDATA[amTest4]]&gt;&lt;/value&gt; &lt;/values&gt; &lt;/jobtitle&gt; &lt;/fields&gt; &lt;/uformrecord&gt; </code></pre> <p>Code snippet:</p> <pre><code>&lt;xsl:param name="currentPage"/&gt; &lt;xsl:param name="records" /&gt; &lt;table&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td width="26%"&gt; &lt;font face="arial" color="#333333" size="2"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;xsl:value-of select="umbraco.library:GetDictionaryItem('position')"/&gt;:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td width="74%"&gt;&lt;font face="arial"&gt;&lt;xsl:value-of select="$records//fields/child::* [name() = 'position']/.//value"/&gt;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;font face="arial" color="#333333" size="2"&gt; &lt;strong&gt; Country of origin &lt;br/&gt; &lt;xsl:value-of select="$records//fields/child::* [name() = 'countryoforigin']"/&gt; &lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/font&gt; &lt;/p&gt; </code></pre>

    1. COCould you show us a bit more of the XSLT? The parts before the `xsl:value-of`, for example. And if you have an example of the XML that corresponds to $records, that would be helpful too.

    2. COIs that _exactly_ the input XML, unmodified? The output you indicated at the top of your question seems to contain some "Id" text at the end that's not in the source XML.

Guidance
A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
