Re: Variable scope when using imported stylesheets

I think what I can do is to declare the variables within the imported template and thus get my abbreviation:

<xsl:template>
 <xsl:for-each select="baseDboFileReference">
   <xsl:call-template name="calledOne" />
 </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template name="calledOne">
  <xsl:variable name="runOutOfIdeas" select="FileRefEval" />
  [siblings]
</xsl:template>

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

<xsl:template match="baseDboFileReference">
  <xsl:variable name="runOutOfIdeas" select="FileRefEval" />
  [siblings]
</xsl:template>

Cheers,
