I'm attempting to display the following XML code in an HTML table using an XSL stylesheet. but am having a few problems.

First off an extract from the XML which was generated using Crystal Reports


<FormattedSections>
<FormattedSection SectionNumber="0">
<FormattedReportObjects>
<FormattedReportObject xsi:type="CTFormattedField" Type="xsd:string" FieldName="{VhStock.REGNO}"><ObjectName>Field22</ObjectName>
<FormattedValue>RLF462</FormattedValue>
<Value>RLF462</Value>
</FormattedReportObject>
<FormattedReportObject xsi:type="CTFormattedField" Type="xsd:string" FieldName="{VhStock.BODY_TYPE}"><ObjectName>Field25</ObjectName>
<FormattedValue>SEDAN</FormattedValue>
<Value>SEDAN</Value>
</FormattedReportObject>
<FormattedReportObject xsi:type="CTFormattedField" Type="xsd:string" FieldName="{VhStock.TRANSMISSION}"><ObjectName>Field27</ObjectName>
<FormattedValue>5M</FormattedValue>
<Value>5M</Value>
</FormattedReportObject>
<FormattedReportObject xsi:type="CTFormattedField" Type="xsd:string" FieldName="{VhStock.PAINT}"><ObjectName>Field28</ObjectName>
<FormattedValue>GREEN</FormattedValue>
<Value>GREEN</Value>

**Note i am wanting to diplay the data between the<Value> </Value> tags in the above XML. How do i select Say just the "VhStock.REGNO" field to display in one <td> and "VhStock.Paint" in the next <td>.

Heres the stylesheet i've created to display the XML it grabs the data but doesnt put it in to a table or any sort of structure plese help:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!-- Edited with XML Spy v4.2 -->
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<body>
<h2>Used Vehicles</h2>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="FormattedReportObjects">
<table border="0">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</table>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="FormattedReportObject">
<tr>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</tr>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="ObjectName|FormattedValue|Value">
<td>
<xsl:value-of select="text()"/>
</td>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

when i view this in the browser it displays like this.

So its not displaying it in a table at all.. i have tried following many tutorials but none have helped me so far.

I have checked both the XML and XSL file in an editor and are both well-formed.

I'm just really stuck on this at the moment, mainly because none of the tutorials really relate to an XML document structured like the one above.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
