doesn't make sense....could you?

Hi,

I am a beginner to learn XSL.
Hope I can understand this clearly.

This is example xml from MSDN. (hello.xml)

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="hello.xsl"?>
<hello-world>
   <greeter>An XSLT Programmer</greeter>
   <greeting>Hello, World!</greeting>
</hello-world>

this is hello.xsl that I am just playing around to see how it works..

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" 
version="1.0">
  <xsl:template match="/hello-world/greeter">
    <div><xsl:value-of select="."/></div>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet> 

As far as I can understand, it should print only "An XSLT Programmer" 
because I think current match scope is under /hello-world/greeter. However, 
when I run this in IE7, it prints 

An XSLT Programmer
Hello, World!

I am trying to understand how "Hello,World!" can be printed by this XSL...
Can anybody explain this concept?

Thanks in advance.
