yep, thats what I want to do...

    It works, using xsl:copy-of I get the result I expected. thanks!
    but using <apply-templates> should also work right?

   yes, those are the nodes i wanted to apply the templates to.
   I've also tried to use $var/node() but I got the root node in the tree fragment.
   My tree fragmente was something like this:

      <node1>
         <node2>
            <node3/>
            <node4/>
         </node2>
         <node5/>
      </node1>

so the result I got when invoquing <xsl:apply-templates select="$var/node()" />
 was only  <node1/> instead of the entire tree.


      Cheers,

           Filipe
