It works here (using Saxon 8).

test.xml:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<options>
   <optionname>Transmission: automatic</optionname>
   <optionname>transmission: automatic</optionname>
</options>

test.xsl:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
   xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

   <xsl:output method="text"/>

   <xsl:template match="options">
     <xsl:value-of select="count(
 
optionname[contains(translate(.,'transmion','TRANSMION'),
                           'TRANSMISSION')])"/>
   </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

output:2
