This set of templates does what you ask, but it is a bad practice to use "xml" as an element name. Since <result> may be a child of <node> or <diff>, I made a template that matches either. When I apply-templates from that template I match every <result>. The output is "123456".:

  <xsl:template match="/">
    <xsl:apply-templates />
  </xsl:template>
  
  <xsl:template match="xml">
      <xsl:apply-templates />
    </xsl:template>
  
  <xsl:template match="node|diff">
      <xsl:apply-templates />
    </xsl:template>
  
  <xsl:template match="result">
      <xsl:value-of select="." />
    </xsl:template>

Hello list!

I've got a xml:
<xml>
  <node>
    <result>1</result>
    <result>2</result>
    <result>3</result>
    <diff>
      <result>4</result>
      <result>5</result>
      <result>6</result>
    </diff>
  </node>
  <node>
  ...
  </node>
  ...
</xml>


I want to process all result children inside the <node> node. No matter if
they are stored inside <node/> or the descendant <diff/>. I want to handel
the <result/> nodes as one result set. So I m trying not to use two
apply-templates after another.
Example:

<xsl: template match"/">
  <xsl:apply templates select="//node"/> </xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="node">
  <xsl:apply-templates select="descendant-or-self::result"/>
</xsl:template>
   

<xsl:template match="result">
  <xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:template>

The output WANTED is "123456".
The output I GET is "123"

When trying:
<xsl:apply-templates select="*/result"/> I only get 456.
:(

What Xpath do I have to use in XSLT 1.0 to get ALL <result/>
