I tend to disagree. Someone who is used to reading XSLT code but unused to your personal coding style will recognize <xsl:value-of select="."/> far more quickly than they recognize &content;. One of my first professional programming assignments involved making enhancements to an assembler program that made extensive use of a personal (and of course undocumented) macro library. It was a nightmare, and I've resisted such temptations ever since. Michael Kay
