I suppose its a moot point whether you exhance XSL's natural abilities by putting a layer over the top of Perl etc, or by extensions in XSL itself. While I have no objections at all to your site's mix-and-match strategy, I do think that the (really rather simple) requirement I have set myself (splitting a big file into bits and linking them properly) ought be almost all done in XSL. It does only need the one extension ("switch output to a new file"). I now bowed to the inevitable today, and put a single line of "sed" in my Makefile to set the name of the `master file'. Now it all works a treat! Sebastian XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
