Hi
I have a quit large XML file with many elements and a XSL to create a XHTML page. My XSL is starting to grow over 800 lines and I fear that it will be difficult to maintain and make changes to it in the future. How do you make huge XSL files maintainable?

One way is to break it into modules, and use
xsl:include (See http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#include )
or xsl:import (See http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#import )

But 800 lines isn't huge for a stylesheet. ;)
