This will need two phases of transformation, but you don't need two stylesheets, you can write the intermediate results to a temporary tree. The questions you are asking are not specific to Saxon: they are basic XSLT coding questions. Could I ask you please to use the xsl-list at mulberrytech for such questions - thanks.
