<xsl:template match="xref">

<xsl:apply-templates select="@xrefid"/>

</xsl:template>


Do you have a template to handle that attribute or are you letting your XSLT
processor take its default behavior (which is to put the text value of the
attribute into the output)? If you are letting it take its default behavior,
you'll never get the FO tags you need.

Also, it's easier (and more maintainable) to just do it all here in this
template rather than call another one from this point.

To say more, I'd have to see more of your transform.

Hello:

I have still not been able to find a solution to this problem. Would
you have any other suggestions to this.

Thank you
