Cool.

Well, applying templates is no different than using for-each, except 
instead of working with nodes directly, you are selecting them to be 
matched by templates (which can then be used to differentiate 
processing according to the types of elements, etc.). Selecting 
"parent::dir/ancestor::dir" is using XPath to select a set of 'dir' 
element ancestors, specifically excluding the parent 'dir' element. 
This was just a guess on my part, that those were the elements 
representing values you wanted listed (values that would have been 
generated by the templates then matched).

Cheers,
Wendell
