But you can probably work around the issue by using <xsl:choose> clauses. <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$mode='blah'"> <xsl:apply-templates select='category-list' mode='blah'/> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="$mode='foo'"> <xsl:apply-templates select='category-list' mode='foo'/> </xsl:when> </xsl:choose> -- Benjamin Franz "Premature optimization is the root of all evil in programming." ---C.A.R.
