xsl:for-each and xsl:apply-templates

It seems that calls to xsl:apply-templates from within an xsl:for-each loop are ignored.  As a result, I end up copying my template handling logic inside of the xsl:for-each loop.  Is this the only approach?  Are there other techniques?

If the question sounds vague, here is a sample of my problem:  Say I have a child node called "child" that appears in 2 different contexts: as a child of "parent1" and a child of "parent2".  My xml source may look like:

<parent1>
  <child/>
  <child/>
</parent1>

<parent2>
  <child/>
  <child/>
  <child/>
</parent2>

"child" should always be processed in the same way, but "parent1" and "parent2" need to wrap it differently.  (more concretely, "parent1" may be a table, and "parent2" may be an unordered list).  I use "xsl:for-each" to get the wrapping that I need, but I need to have my "child" template handling in 2 places.

Hope this makes sense, 

Thanks, Gerry
