why?

You want to have

main.xsl
...
<xsl:param name="x"/>
<xsl:include href="$foo"/>
...

and go

saxon input.xml main.xsl x=custom-a.xsl

you can't do that, but you can do this which is simpler and usually
equivalent:


custom-a.xsl
<xsl:include href="main.xsl"/>


saxon input.xml custom-a.xsl


That is instead of having your runtime choice pass a parameter to the
main stylesheet choose your top level stylesheet at run time, and have
all those top level stylesheets include the common code.


If you really do need to generate a stylesheet then what you described
is what Mike meant.
