Re: Inconsistent interpretation of // relative to doc

you don't show what value is being passed as $template-source, is it a
relative URI?

if so most likely that teh base URI isn't set (or is set differently) in
your calling scenarios.

It may be that document($template-source) is empty in one case.

Cheers,
Wendell
