-----Original Message----- From: David Carlisle > would make my life a lot more awkward... I think in the long run relying on the position of the templates in the file will make your life harder, almost every otherfeature in xslt is designed so that the top level constructs in a stylesheet may be placed in any order, re-arranged by code beautifiers, etc, When something goes wrong (as in the OP's case) it is much harder to see which template is being applied. Of course in the usual case you write templates first without priority but if you get a warning of a template conflict I think it's always good practice to make a concious decision about which one you want to win and then give that one a high priority. Which is one of my reasons for preferring Saxon? I think it has the clearest and most explicit warnings of all the processors I've tried. Like Geert, I need to be told when something is wrong before I'll fix it :-) regards DaveP -- DISCLAIMER: NOTICE: The information contained in this email and any attachments is confidential and may be privileged.
