If I have two xml files with identical structure, but with different
node names, I know I can write one Stylesheet to handle both files.
However, is there a more efficient way then the following?  This seems
pretty simple, but what if the file is 3 or 4 megabytes?

For instance:

<ArrayOfBooks>
	<Book>
		<Title>FOO</Title>
	</Book>
</ArrayOfBooks>

and 

<ArrayOfMagazines>
	<Magazine>
		<Title>FOOTOO</Title>
	</Magazine>
</ArrayOfMagazines>

With this Stylesheet:

<xsl:template match="/">
	<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="ArrayOfBooks | ArrayOfMagazines">
	<table>
		<xsl:apply-templates/>
	</table>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="Book | Magazine">
	<tr>
		<td>
			<xsl:value-of select="Title"/>
		</td>
	</tr>
</xsl:template>
