Thanks Nantapon,
but I have in my original document xsl:id attribute="id".
XSL:P of Mr. K. Visco supports id(@ref).

But the problem should be different, and I don't undertand what it is.

Bye.

You must identify id element using xsl:id before using id().

I try the following stylesheet. It doesn't work on XT, though. XT doesn't
support id.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl" indent-result-"yes">
<xsl:id attribute="id"/>

<xsl:template match="common"/>

<xsl:template match="/">
  <xsl:apply-templates select=".//letter"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="letter//*|common//*">
  <xsl:copy><xsl:apply-templates/></xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="letter//insert_common|common//insert_common">
 <xsl:apply-templates select="id(@ref)/*"/>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
