Google?  What's wrong with C-h f replace-regexp?

   In TO-STRING, `\&' stands for whatever matched the whole of REGEXP,
   and `\N' (where N is a digit) stands for
   whatever what matched the Nth `\(...\)' in REGEXP.



I don't see any \( \) groupings in your regexp, the following might work
better:

xsl:template match=\([\"a-zA-Z0-9]+\)>
