Yup! This is exactly what the problem was.  (Mainly the difference
between '/' and the top element 'foo' in this case.) Made sure each
element down the tree passes on the value of the param and it now
works perfectly.

You guessed correctly.   Me having a *doh* moment, of course each
apply-templates has to pass the param on from the very top down. *doh*

Many thanks Dimitre,
