Hallo Bart,

Tempore 13:44:57, die Sunday 04 September 2005 AD, hinc in foro {comp.text.xml} scripsit Bart <orion_@p...>:

The problem could be solved with this:

<xsl:for-each select="child[position() &gt; 1]" />

or you could use the push style:
Instead of using for-each, you would then use templates.

<xsl:template match="child">
  Some transformation
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="root/child[1]"/>

The last template would make sure that the first child is ignored.
