Haven't been able to find it via websearch.  URL maybe?

Wel, not really Mike ... given that I've never used XML/XSL and the books don't reference the syntax ... I have yet to see and example of an "and" in xml or xsl reading, and tools that I'm using balk at what I've typed.  I typed the "and" above as pseudocode.

On another note ... I'm trying to get at the node/treefragment that would be represented by "data" above.  FOP balks, saying that I can't convert a treefragment into a nodelist.  How can I get the treefragment represented by "data" into a variable which can then be dereferenced?  If the "and" works, it will still be very bulky because I will be creating a lot of variables from nodes within "data"?  Any advice?  Last approach was to use a named template to return "data".
