My boss things that if you don't charge your cell phone completely each time, it "changes the memory" in the battery so that a full charge will then equal only what you charged it to when it wasn't full.

This is crazy, right?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I need xsl help!

OK, instead of a

xsl:for-each

I need something that will only look at the fist XML element, instead of looping through all of them.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

You probably want to use <xsl:value-of> or <xsl:call-template> in those circumstances.
