RE: [xsl] nested templates?

[Wendell Piez <wapiez@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Chris,

Which can easily be dealt with (as Mark says) with, for example,

  <xsl:template match="book//bookmark"> ... </xsl:template>

(matching any bookmark element but only if inside a book somewhere, not 
loose on the table).

And now that Kurt's reminded me, I do remember nested templates from early 
versions of the language: my guess is they came out in the wash when it was 
seen they don't really add anything, at the risk of confusing us (further) 
about the processing model.

Cheers,
Wendell
