If so, what patter matches a p element which starts with

<xsl:template match="p[matches(., '(^the quick brown)|brown fox')]">...</xsl:template>

Are the brackets necessary Martin?

I am not entiry sure they are needed, maybe someone else can tell us, or maybe later on I will find time to make sense of the combined schema and XPath/XSLT regular expression syntax (which introduced the '^' and '$' on top of the schema regular expression syntax).
