If you need to dynamically create this tree, then you can build the tree with: <xsl:variable name="node-rtf"> <node>1</node> <node>2</node> <node>3</node> </xsl:variable> But you then need to use the appropriate node-set() extension function for your processor to convert the result tree fragment to a node set, in order to sum the values of the node elements. For example with MSXML this would be: sum(msxsl:node-set($node-rtf)/node) If you don't need to dynamically create the tree, then you can just include it at the top level of your stylesheet (though you'll have to put the root-node element in a namespace) and access it through the document() function: sum(document('')/xsl:stylesheet/my:root-node/node) Cheers, Jeni --- Jeni Tennison http://www.jenitennison.com/ XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
