I am running saxon 6.5.2 and MSXSL/MSXML 4.0. I have the following xml file <HTMLContents> <table> <font face="Courier">Some text</font> </table> </HTMLContents> and the following stylesheet <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:template match="HTMLContents"> <root> <xsl:call-template name="ProcessSection"/> </root> </xsl:template> <xsl:template name="ProcessSection" match="font" mode="Section"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="@face='Courier'"> <InFont>Section mode</InFont> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:apply-templates mode="Section"/> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="font"> <InFont>No mode</InFont> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> Saxon (I think correctly) produces <root> <InFont>Section mode</InFont> </root> The default template has been recursively applied in Section mode until the template matching font in Section mode is reached, and the output produced. However, MSXSL produces <root> <InFont>No mode</InFont> </root> suggesting that the mode has been lost somewhere along the line. Is my analysis correct? Is anyone aware of this being a known bug in MSXML 4.0? If I change the stylesheet to <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:template match="HTMLContents"> <root> <xsl:apply-templates mode="Section"/> </root> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="font" mode="Section"> <InFont>Section mode</InFont> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="font"> <InFont>No mode</InFont> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> Both produce <root> <InFont>Section mode</InFont> </root> as expected, so it appears to be tied in with the use of call-template.
