xsl:import is pretty awesome, let me say that right off. I totally agree. Here is a paper describing the publishing system I designed and implemented for publishing individual US intelligence documents according to a common XSD using different skins for every intelligence gathering agency (e.g. CENTCOM, STRATCOM, US Forces South Korea, US Coast Guard, etc.) that heavily relies on xsl:import: http://www.CraneSoftwrights.com/links/ipepaper.htm Note that the XSLStyle documentation methodology is very helpful in documenting a multi-import/include stylesheet including an alphabetized index of top-level named constructs and in which module each construct is found: http://www.CraneSoftwrights.com/resources/#xslstyle But it sometimes yields surprising results. I've found it very reliable when using Saxon. I've found it very unreliable using Xalan and other XSLT processors (but of course I've not tried them all). I have a stylesheet called rendereddocument.xsl that imports a number of other stylesheets using the xsl:import instructions: Not quite, but very close. However, this isn't what's happening. Instead, the template matching rm:document defined in rendereddocument.xsl is being applied. Probably because of the way that rm:associated is being handled by the imported stylesheets. <xsl:imports> *re-applies* the last-matched node using only the imported stylesheets ... so it is as if you wrote <xsl:apply-templates select="."/> with imported stylesheets, it isn't (as I think you've written above) an <xsl:apply-templates select="node()"/> or <xsl:apply-templates/> with imported stylesheets. So, to figure out what is happening in your situation, check out how you are handling rm:associated in the imported stylesheets, and that will probably tell you how rm:document is being pushed at your stylesheet. Any help would be most appreciated. Let me know if you need to see all the files. Last time, the issue was glaringly apparent from just the first email. ;) Hopefully you've found this just as helpful. . . . . . . . . . . .
