I am given a TEI xml spreadsheet and I need to make a layout for it. My biggest problem currently is that the format uses p tags to break up the text. However when I parse the xml to html the tags are not there, instead the spacing is there in the document.
As follows is my model that I'm trying to output, yes it's very lacking right now:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:tei="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0" exclude-result-prefixes="tei">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<body style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">
<div style="color:teal;padding:4px; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, .8);">
<span style="font-weight:bold">
<xsl:value-of select="tei:TEI/tei:teiHeader/tei:fileDesc/tei:titleStmt/tei:title"/>
<p>
<xsl:value-of select="tei:TEI/tei:teiHeader/tei:fileDesc/tei:titleStmt/tei:author"/>
</p>
<xsl:value-of select="tei:TEI/tei:teiHeader/tei:fileDesc/tei:publicationStmt"/>
<p>
<xsl:value-of select="tei:TEI/tei:text"/>
</p>
</span>
</div>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Here is the xml I'm trying to interpret
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-model href="http://www.tei-.org/release/xml/tei/custom/schema/relaxng/tei_all.rng" type="application/xml" schematypens="http://relaxng.org/ns/structure/1.0"?>

Our first parents hearkening to ye Temptation
of ye Devil & braking thro' ye divine Law by eating
of ye forbidden fruit, soon experienced a sad
Change in themselves. And as soon as they
discovered it, like guilty Criminals, they attempted
to fly from Justice.

<p>
Their great Creator coming into paradise
after ye apostasy, & finding his Creatures fled,
avoiding his presence & hiding themselves among
the Trees, he calls to one of them in these words
of ye Text, <quote cRef="Genesis 3:9">
"<name type="m" role="biblical">Adam</name>, where art thou?"

may be considered—
</p>
<p>
1. As an Expression of Admiration, i.e. How
great & sudden a Change! Where! whither is
<pb n="2"></pb> The Creature gone, which I so lately made & dearly
loved; with whom I was so well pleased, & took so
much delight; who lately above all Things desired my
Company, & rejoiced in it, placing his Life in
my favor & Love? What a strange Turn is made?
& from whence can it proceed? Is man afraid
of his God that he thus runs from him? Is he impatient
of my presence, weary of my Converse,
unwilling of further Acquaintance with me, that he
now retires at my Approach & seems to hide?
He was not wont do do so. <quote cRef="Genesis 3:9">

This is the translated html. You can see where the p tags used to be but are now large spaces:

Desired Output but I'd also love to be able to identify all the quote, orig, reg, and name tags:

I really need some help here. Also if you know of a good tutorial or documentation for the interpretation of TEI I'd greatly appreciate it!
So @C. M. Sperberg-McQueen thanks! I just needed to add this to my code for the paragraphs to show up with their correct values and still be in block style:
<xsl:template match="tei:text/tei:body/tei:p">
<p xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</p>
</xsl:template>
