Hi Karl, I have written the following XSL to illustrate the concept -- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xalan="http://xml.apache.org/xalan"> <xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/> <xsl:template match="/A"> <xsl:variable name="var"> <xsl:call-template name="get-subset-xml"> <xsl:with-param name="param" select="child::B"/> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:variable> <!-- using variable var --> <xsl:value-of select="count(xalan:nodeset($var)/B/*)" /> </xsl:template> <xsl:template name="get-subset-xml"> <xsl:param name="param"/> <xsl:copy-of select="$param"/> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> A nodeset function is being used, *to use the Result Tree Fragment(RTF), returned by the template "get-subset-xml" *. I have used nodeset, for illustration purpose.. I hope the explanation is useful.. Regards, Mukul --- "Karl J.
