Hi Karl,

I think you can use something like below:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; xmlns:x="http://example.com/myTemplates";>


  <xsl:template match="@x:template1" x:template1="">
    <xsl:param name="contextNode"/>
    <xsl:for-each select="$contextNode">
      In template1!
    </xsl:for-each>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template match="@x:template2" x:template2="">
    <xsl:param name="contextNode"/>
    <xsl:for-each select="$contextNode">
      In template1!
    </xsl:for-each>
  </xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="/*">
<xsl:variable name="target" select="'template1'"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="document('')/*/xsl:template[@x:*[local-name()=$target]]">
<xsl:with-param name="contextNode" select="."/>
</xsl:apply-templates>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>


I believe FXSL also has something similar, you might check that as well.

Best Regards,
George

I am in a situation where in a particular section need to call
different template dynamically based on which template invokes it.
Though I can use <xsl:choose> or <xsl:if> to do that, i wish i pass
the template name as a param value.

 e.g.
<xsl:call-template name="A">
 <xsl:with-param name="TemplateName">xx_template</xsl:with-param>
</xsl:apply-templates>
...

<xsl:call-template name="A">
 <xsl:with-param name="TemplateName">yy_template</xsl:with-param>
</xsl:apply-templates>

and then

<xsl:template name="A">
 <xsl:param name="TemplateName"/>
 ....
 <xsl:call-template name="{$TemplateName}"/>
 ..
</xsl:template>

I doesnt work. Is it valid? If not, are there any better method to
achieve similar result. Currently, iam passing numbers in param and
use <xsl:choose> to call different templates .


Thanks
karl
