[xsl] Processing approach

["Joseph L. Casale jcasale@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am processing an xml doc where a template adds some elements at
one point in the tree. While doing this, it generates a variable that I also
use at another location in the tree. Rather than regenerate the variable
and introduce a chance for breakage in the future, is there a more efficient
approach for processing the alternate node without selecting that node
and calling a template on it which needs to copy it? I need to call this same
template several times?

Thanks,
