RE: Iterative XML Handling

Mike,

I am concerned about performance, although we are a bit away from performance
testing.  How much of a hit do you think that this could be?  (Using IE5)  The
reason for the detailed addressing is that certain elements (addresses, address)
appear in several contexts, and are handled differently each time.

I could limit the addressing to the necessary - I had been exhaustive up to this
point to ensure consistency.

Then use:

<xsl:template
match="invoices/invoice/header/addresses/address[type='Billing']">
     ...
</xsl:template>

(Do you really need to name all the ancestors? It will only slow down the
pattern matching...)
