Re: dynamically applying templates

I'm saying, in effect, there's nothing preventing you from selecting nodes in your config file, and matching them with templates, to achieve "dynamic template selection" if you want.

So you're saying match the config template and apply to mods with something like the following?

<xsl:template match="cs:title">
  <xsl:apply-templates select="//mods:titleInfo"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template
   match="cs:title[parent::reftype/@name='book' and
                   ancestor::bibliography/@author-as-sort-order='yes'>
  <mods:titleInfo>
    Creates whatever output you want for this kind of title here;
    make generic, if you like, by including values of @after and
    so forth in place of literals....
  </mods:titleInfo>
</xsl:template>

<bibliography author-as-sort-order="yes">
  <entry>
    <reftype name="book">
      <title font-style="italic" after=", "/>
         [etc.]
    </reftype>
  </entry>
</bibliography>

<xsl:template match="cs:title">
  <xsl:apply-templates select="//mods:titleInfo" mode="bib"/>
</xsl:template>
...
<xsl:template match="mods:titleInfo" mode="bib">
  <span class="title">
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </span>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="cs:citation">
  <mods:titleInfo>
    ...
  </mods:titleInfo>
</xsl:template>

Cheers,
Wendell
