xml transformations

I am new to transforming xml with xsl so maybe someone can help me

below is the xml i am getting from a web service.

basically I want to write a xsl page to transform that and select only structs that have a
<member>
<name>status</name>
- <value>
<string>Syndicated</string>

Does that make any sense? Even someone pointing me to the right tutorials would be a big help thanks!!

Code:

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" ?> 
- <methodResponse>
- <params>
- <param>
- <value>
- <array>
- <data>
- <value>
- <struct>
- <member>
  <name>sitename</name> 
- <value>
  <string>http://www.xblocks.com/contentPortal/weblog</string> 
  </value>
  </member>
- <member>
  <name>siteurl</name> 
- <value>
  <string>http://www.elevenprospect.com/</string> 
  </value>
  </member>
- <member>
  <name>dataurl</name> 
- <value>
  <string>http://cp.elevenprospect.com/xblocks/xml.jsp?portal=www.xblocks.com/contentPortal/weblog&filterName=name&filterValue=.*</string> 
  </value>
  </member>
-<member>
  <name>status</name> 
- <value>
  <string>Syndicated</string>  
  </value>
  </member>
- <member>
  <name>description</name> 
- <value>
  <string>ElevenPropsect</string> 
  </value>
  </member>
- <member>
  <name>faultCode</name> 
- <value>
  <string>0</string> 
  </value>
  </member>
- <member>
  <name>faultString</name> 
- <value>
  <string /> 
  </value>
  </member>
  </struct>
  </value>
  </data>
  </array>
  </value>
  </param>
  </params>
  </methodResponse>

First off, next time you post XML go to View->Source and paste that instead so you don't paste all of those stupid "-" characters that are not truly part of the XML. The XSL that I am about to present to you makes the ASSUMPTION that when you said "I want to write a xsl page to transform that and select only structs that have a <XML>" that what was meant by that was "struct elements that have one or more member elements."

Code:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="/">
	<xsl:apply-templates select="methodResponse/params/param/value/array/data/value/struct[count(member) > 1]"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="struct">
	<!-- process struct -->
	This struct has at least one member element.
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
