Hi John ! <xsl:value-of select="$somenode/@attr" /> is not correct i think, the select attribute shall be wheter an variable name precede with or an Xpath expression. <xsl:copy-of select="/root/node1" /> will actually return the xml fragment of node1, but when doing <xsl:value-of select=""/> you will get the value of this fragment. I'm not sure I really got what you mean by "return a reference to a node" ? An idea (maybe) is to use the generate-id() Xpath function which gives you an single id for each node ? hope this help. Matthieu -----Message d'origine----- De : John [mailto:john-xsl-list@xxxxxxxx] Envoyi : jeudi 16 juin 2005 16:25 @ : xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Objet : [xsl] Can a named template return a node list? Sorry in advance for my terminology. Is it possible for a named template to return a node list? Here is some simplified XML with which I have been experimenting: <root> <node1 attr="node1attrval"> <node1a>node1atext</node1a> </node1> <node2 attr="node2attrval"> <node2a>node2atext</node2a> </node2> </root> And the XSL I have been trying: <xsl:template match="*"> <xsl:variable name="somenode"> <xsl:call-template name="sometemplate" /> </xsl:variable> <xsl:value-of select="$somenode/@attr" /> </xsl:template> <xsl:template name="sometemplate"> <xsl:copy-of select="/root/node1" /> </xsl:template> The reference to $somenode/@attr gives an error. I think the problem is with copy-of - I want it to return a reference to a node, but it seems to return the value of the node. Is there some other function or approach I should try? I have tried value-of and copy, and I am hoping to stay away from XSL extensions if possible. I cannot use XSL 2. Thanks, -John
