Because that way you have have one small file locked by programmer A in the version control system and another small file locked by programmer B in the version control system. XSLT is not all that good at being used in large, multi-programmer projects; there's little-to-no automerge support for version control, and various processors throw warnings at you if you have a file included in more than one place (as you want to do if you're defining a bunch of utility functions in a big mass of XSLT code.) But having things being broken out into smaller files on some logical grounds -- semantic groupings of target elements, say -- certainly helps. -- Graydon
