Answer 1

Try this XSLT to get your desired output:

  <xsl:template match="portfolio">
    <xsl:text>"Name";"Price"</xsl:text>
    <xsl:text>&#10;</xsl:text>
    <xsl:for-each select="stock">
      <xsl:text>"</xsl:text>
      <xsl:value-of select="name"/>
      <xsl:text>";</xsl:text>
      <xsl:text>"</xsl:text>
      <xsl:value-of select="price"/>
      <xsl:text>"</xsl:text>
      <xsl:text>&#10;</xsl:text>
    </xsl:for-each>
  </xsl:template>

Answer 2

This is my last script:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="portfolio">

<xsl:text>"Name"</xsl:text>
<xsl:text>&#10;</xsl:text>
<xsl:text>;</xsl:text>
<xsl:text>&#10;</xsl:text>
<xsl:text>"Price"</xsl:text><br/>&#10;

<xsl:for-each select="//stock[@exchange='nasdaq']">

<xsl:text>"</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="name"/>
<xsl:text>"</xsl:text><xsl:text>&#10;</xsl:text>

<xsl:text>;</xsl:text>
<xsl:text>&#10;</xsl:text>

<xsl:text>"</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="price"/>
<xsl:text>"</xsl:text><br/>&#10;

</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

Its work fine to filter out the info and making new line for csv output! =)
