Re: [xsl] Naming styles

[xptm@xxxxxxx]

Indeed i'm using only includes, not imports. However, i thought that the two
are
basicaly the same, the only diference being their precedence, concept that i
don't understand completly.

I even thought that they are interchangeble without problems in most of the
cases (altought that make me wonder why there are two elements to do the same
thing...)

So if i understand correctly, if i have several equal definitions of vars or
templates in several xsl, using import only one of the definitions is "valid"
while if i use include that will lead to conflict problems?

Regards.
