It turned out to be a namespace issue, I was able to resolve it. Thanks.

That means the default rules are matched, which simply copies all text
nodes and attribute values to the result tree.

Without seeing a stylesheet or source document, it's difficult to guess
why you are not getting the expected result. Usually, when template
rules don't match, it's a namespace problem.
Perhaps you are transforming an XHTML document? The XHTML DTD adds a
default namespace, which will affect how you need to define the match
patterns in your templates.
I suggest you check out the XSLT FAQ and consider subscribing to the
Mulberry Technologies XSL list, which is the best forum for general
XSL(T) questions.
