to address your doubt about why it is not enuf for me to just use <xsl:copy-of select="Type/text()"/> instead of recursion i have to further explain what i am trying to do.. See, it's always much easier to answer questions given sample input and desired output. You are correct that my one line xsl:copy can not add the "_" between the items (In Xpath 2 this will be possible and the whole stylesheet below could be replaced by a single xsl:value-of) However you don't need recursion, just a small for-each loop over the elements <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0"> <xsl:param name="x"/> <xsl:template match="Root"> <xsl:for-each select="Elements/Element[@name=$x]/R/Type"> <xsl:value-of select="/Root/*[name()=current()]"/> <xsl:if test="position()!=last()">_</xsl:if> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> $ saxon concat.xml concat.xsl x=El1 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>R1_R2 davidc@DCARLISLE /c/tmp $ saxon concat.xml concat.xsl x=El2 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>R1 davidc@DCARLISLE /c/tmp $ saxon concat.xml concat.xsl x=El3 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>R1_R2_R3 which matches your desired output I believe. -- http://www.dcarlisle.demon.co.uk/matthew XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
