Hmm, that doesn't seem to be it.

When this template is called:

<xsl:template match="t">
        <fo:block keep-together="always" start-indent="1.25in">
                <xsl:apply-templates />
        </fo:block>
</xsl:templates>

My interpretation is that any thing that has a <t> tag is indented.

When this template is called:

<xsl:template match="line">
        <fo:block line-hieght="2.0">
                <xsl:value-of select="./@number" />
                <xsl:value-of select="./line"/>
                <xsl:apply-templates />
        </fo:block>
</xsl:template>

I believe it is saying everything inside line tag is printed.

The more I mess around with things, I've noticed that I don't need
<xsl:value-of select="./line" />.  1.) Because its not a correct
statement (as you pointed out), and 2.) the apply-templates is making a
call similar to <xsl:value-of select="." />.  So if I have another value
of, my lines are getting printed twice.

What I can't seem to handle is when I indent a specific line, and then
jump to handling the rest of the lines.  So I believe what it comes down
to is can I specify HOW it applies the template? So if I have the
following XML:

<line number ="1">
<t>a;a;kljaf;dkfja;dfkj</t>
</line>

Can I handle the <t> tags within the line template?

Thanks!
