Re: [xsl] Name of current mode

Hi,

Ken's suggestion of using a tunnel parameter to pass processing state information is a good one -- but it may not be quite necessary in this case:

is there an accessor function for the current mode in XSLT 2?

The idea is to have something like this (I know this is NOT valid code!):

--snip--
<xsl:template match="image" mode="captioned-image block-image">
   ...
  <xsl:if test="current-mode()='captioned-image'">
      ...add some attribute...
  </xsl:if>
   ...
</xsl:template>

Instead of the xsl:if clause, simply have <xsl:next-match/> with (elsewhere)

<xsl:template match="image" mode="captioned-image" priority="-1">
  ... add your attribute ...
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="image" mode="block-image" priority="-1"/>

(And bump up all the priorities if you feel so inclined.)

Not tested, but it should work.

Cheers,
Wendell
