Following are some use cases where I find self:: axis to be useful. <xsl:template match="*[not(self::elem)]"> <!-- do something --> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="*"> <xsl:if test="not(self::elem)"> <!-- do something --> </xsl:if> </xsl:template> Of course there could be alternates ways of writing the logic, like using the name() or local-name() function. We could start of a discussion of for-each vs. apply-templates :) You suggested xsl:apply-template over the for-each example I posted. There are times when I *don't want to* define a template. I just want to do for-each at the place where I am. -- Regards, Mukul Gandhi
