RE: Too many apply-templates call error -- can't figur

Hi Michael,

I actually devised a way so that i would not always
process the whole 14000 list of strings in each pass
of the function so that i will not create a stack
overflow. what i did was i would place in another
variable the strings in the $WordList that are
contained in the text() node being processed and so
far its working :D.

<xsl:template match="text()[name(parent::*)!=$Tag]">
<xsl:variable name="x" as="xs:string" select="."/>
<xsl:variable name="srchStr" as="xs:string*">
<xsl:for-each select="$wordLst">
<xsl:if test="contains($x,.)">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="repLst" as="xs:string*"
select="for $i in (1 to count($srchStr)) return
f:tempReplacement($i)"/>
<xsl:variable name="tmpStr"
select="f:replace-all(.,$srchStr,$repLst,1)"/>
<xsl:value-of
select="f:replace-all($tmpStr,$repLst,$srchStr,0)"/>
</xsl:template>

thanks,
UlyLee
