    <p>The XML</p> <pre><code> &lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?&gt; &lt;data&gt; &lt;events /&gt; &lt;tour&gt; &lt;section id="3" handle="tour"&gt;Tour&lt;/section&gt; &lt;entry id="15"&gt; &lt;title handle="dummy-entry-1"&gt;Dummy Entry 1&lt;/title&gt; &lt;description mode="formatted"&gt;Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...&lt;/description&gt; &lt;photo size="24 KB" path="/images/tour" type="image/jpeg"&gt; &lt;filename&gt;no-image.jpg&lt;/filename&gt; &lt;meta creation="2010-03-07T17:00:24-08:00" width="1000" height="1000" /&gt; &lt;/photo&gt; &lt;/entry&gt; &lt;/tour&gt; &lt;/data&gt; </code></pre> <p>The XSLT</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt; &lt;xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"&gt; &lt;xsl:template match="/data/tour/entry"&gt; &lt;img src="{filename}"/&gt; &lt;h2&gt;{heading}&lt;/h2&gt; {description} &lt;/xsl:template&gt; &lt;/xsl:stylesheet&gt; </code></pre> <p>Here is the code I am working with. I am a newbie to XSLT and I suppose I am not understanding how it transforms my XML into HTML entirely. This snippet of code I plan on loading via AJAX, so I really all I need it to output is a blank html document consisting only of these three items.</p> <p>I realize I am omitting the xsl:output tag and that is because I really don't understand how I can get this to just simply match that information to my tags in my xml without adding , tags etc. All it outputs is a string of text in an html document.</p> <p>If it helps, I am working in the Symphony CMS environment.</p>

    1. COIt would be much better if you could actually ask a question. I see you have "answered" this yourself, but you don't understand why. At least in your answer, you seem to have grasped that to address the filename element while your template is processing an entry element, the attribute template should be {photo/filename}, and (presumably inspired by @Ragez) that you need to use <xsl:value-of/> to get values in places where attribute templates don't work.

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.
