If you haven't understood xsl:apply-templates then you haven't understood XSLT: it's rather fundamental. It selects the set of nodes identified by the XPath expression in the select attribute, and for each of these nodes, it looks for the "best match" xsl:template rule to apply to that node. The "best match" is a template rule whose match pattern matches the node, and if there are several, the one that has the highest precedence/priority. If there is no select attribute, it selects the children of the current node. Mike Kay XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
