Hello all -- The prototype has a whole bunch of individual templates which are mostly the same except in match expression and in one of the values created; the XML structure is mostly identical. Many other things about the process are being driven out of a map already, and I find myself wondering if there's a way to (in effect) have a dynamic call-template instruction; I want to keep the context, and maybe evaluate some attribute value templates in the xml nodes provided, but which exact nodes (and which exact attribute value templates) vary. So a list item might look up: <style> <style-name value="List" /> <paragraphNumber> <level depth="{@depth - 1}"/> </paragraphNumber> </style> While a paragraph looks up: <style> <style-name value="Paragraph" /> </style> The transform function is computationally expensive and I'd have to pass in arbitrary context (for things like determining heading depth); that doesn't seem appealing. xsl:evaluate can evaluate the XPath in the current context but then there's no obvious way to get that value into the markup: <xsl:map-entry key="'list'"> <style> <style-name val="List" /> <paragraphNumber> <level depth="{$calculated[1]}"/> </paragraphNumber> </style> </xsl:map-entry> returns an error because $calculated is undefined. (The idea there being to evaluate all the XPath into a sequence of zero or more results and positionally reference the results as a means of keeping the evaluation generic.) Driving this from a map is attractive, but not if I'm doing serialize-regexp-parse-xml-fragment to get values into it. Is there a sensible way to do this?
