Now you have me worried! Can you please explain this? Lets say I have
a really simple stylesheet. One construction rule for title elements. That
is all - no fancy selects or modes or stuff. Just this:
<xsl>
<rule>
<target-element type = "title">
<DIV>
<children/>
</DIV>
</rule>
</xsl>
My document has 10 title elements. If I understand you correctly
you are saying
1) This construction rule might be executed 1000 times
2) The order in which the title elements in my document are
processed is random.
I don't get it:-(
