I can't guess what your code looks like from this description but XSLT
won't find anything above that node if you don't apply templates to
nodes above there.

Which is what I suggested the first time, admittedly when cutting and
pasting the xsl:if into a for-each I left in the test attribute.

You don't want to process all nodes and then have some strange test on
each one to decide if you want to be there, just process the nodes that
you need.

something like


<xsl:for-each select="/ns:html/ns:body/ns:div[@id='content']/ns:p/ns:strong">
....
