Matt, >Does anyone know why I must specify the full path in an apply-templates >instruction inside the root template? You are confusing the 'root node' and the 'document element'. The root node is basically the node representing the document itself, whereas the document element is the element node representing the element that has all other elements within the document as children. In a match="/" template, the context node (from which relative paths are resolved) is the root node, *not* the document element, which is why you're having problems. See Section 5.1 (Root Node) of the XPath Recommendation [http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath] Cheers, Jeni Dr Jeni Tennison Epistemics Ltd, Strelley Hall, Nottingham, NG8 6PE Telephone 0115 9061301 ?
