I have an example that I can't manage as you suggest. I have a stylesheet of default rules and a bunch of completely orthogonal stylesheets. Due to orthogonality, every user can freely add a new stylesheet. When I apply the stylesheets, I want to choose "on the fly" the right combination of stylesheets to use. I don't know in advance what combination I want and so your suggestion does not work. Or am I missing something? Regards, C.S.C. P.S: Just to understand the situation, the source files are formalized mathematical theorems and the stylesheets are mathematical notations. Every stylesheet is about a set of related mathematical definitions. Every definition usually have more than a notation ==> usually have more than a stylesheet. The user can choose freely the notation just before looking at the theorem. Two stylesheets are orthogonal when they refer to disjoint sets of definition. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------- Real name: Claudio Sacerdoti Coen Undergraduate Computer Science Student at University of Bologna E-mail: sacerdot@xxxxxxxxxxx http://caristudenti.cs.unibo.it/~sacerdot ---------------------------------------------------------------- XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
