<xsl:template name="test" match='dxl:document[@form="frmTask"]'>

Even if you add a match-attribute to this template (what's absolutely valid), the context is not changed when you use <xsl:call-template/>. The noden the transformer processes at the moment, is still <dxl:database/>. If you use <xsl:apply-templates/> the context changes to <dxl:document/> if the template above is applied.

Is <dxl:document/> a a child of <dxl:database/>?? Then you can test it with

<xsl:value-of select='dxl:document/dxl:item[@name="ContentProviderInfo"]/dxl:text'/>

in your named template.

Hi.

I have a problem with <xsl:call-template>. When I use:

<xsl:template match='dxl:database'><xsl:text/>
 <xsl:element name='Message'> <xsl:text>&#10;</xsl:text>
   <xsl:apply-templates/>
 </xsl:element>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template name="test" match='dxl:document[@form="frmTask"]'>
<xsl:element name="ContentProviderInfo"> <xsl:value-of select='dxl:item[@name="ContentProviderInfo"]/dxl:text'
/> </xsl:element>
</xsl:template>


Everything works great, but if I want to use the call template tag like:

<xsl:template match='dxl:database'><xsl:text/>
<xsl:element name='Message'> <xsl:call-template name = "test" />
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>


<xsl:template name="test" match='dxl:document[@form="frmTask"]'>
<xsl:element name="ContentProviderInfo"> <xsl:value-of select='dxl:item[@name="ContentProviderInfo"]/dxl:text'
/> </xsl:element>
</xsl:template>


Then it won't work(doesn't find the data). I know there is some
difference here in context node and nodelist from what I have been
reading, but I can't understand the difference. I haven't seen any
examples of xsl:call-template calling a template that iterates through
the current XML document.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
