RE: [xsl] Call context within a named xsl:template

[Jeff Beadle <Jbeadle@xxxxxxxx>]

that's what I thought.  If my template was executed by pattern then I
could--in most cases--resolve my 'caller', however my delima is when I'm
being called by another xsl element via call-template.  I would think that'd
be possible, maybe by a parser extension, that one might be able to reach up
into the stylesheet tree.

The feature I ask for is similar to Thread Local Storage or to context aware
paradigms like MTS/COM+.

thanks anyway!

No.

(It's surprising how often people ask for features in XSLT that I've never
come across in any other programming language...)
