Only using an extension function. You can store the result of the first pass in a variable, but it's stored as a result tree fragment, which means that you can't go on to process it further without turning it into a node set. You can turn it into a node set with extension functions; most processors have them... > Two other notes/constraints: (1) I'm using the XalanC++ processor, ... and in Xalan-C++ it's called nodeset(), in the namespace http://xml.apache.org/xalan. So do something like: <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xalan="http://xml.apache.org/xalan" extension-element-prefixes="xalan"> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:variable name="pass1-rtf"> <xsl:apply-templates mode="pass1" /> </xsl:variable> <xsl:apply-templates select="xalan:nodeset($pass1-rtf)" mode="pass2" /> </xsl:template> ... </xsl:stylesheet> with templates in 'pass1' mode for your first pass and in 'pass2' mode for your second pass.
