Remember that your XML document, the input, has a tree structure, and the XSLT processor also wants to output a tree structure. The processor walks through the input tree and fires up the template that matches each element it encounters. So if you have: <document> <header>stuff</header> <middlepart>more</middlepart> <footer>end</footer> </document> and xsl:template match="document" <html><head/><body><xsl:apply-templates></body></html> and templates for header, middlepart, and footer, the xsl:apply-templates will cause the processor to fire up the header, middlepart, and footer templates one after the other and the output will be generated for these elements inside the <body> element. Hope this helps, Linda XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
