Zaloa,
You haven't answered my question as what the problem is. Do these rules 
compile?
It seems to me that you have misunderstood how the condition part of the 
rules work.
I agree with David that it would help for you to study the manual some 
more and to work through some of the tutorials.
Since this is a Drools forum, there are probably not a lot of folks who 
understand exactly how JAXP translates the XML into beans. You are more 
likely to get help here if you include the relevant portions (get 
methods) of the API output by JAXP.
