> <root> > <one> > <two> > <applytemplates select="what to put here if i > want to start from the root//ten" I am not sure what you mean here. (and there is a typo in apply-templates name...). This does not make any sense either as a source document or as a stylesheet. One interpretation would be: - source document - <one> <two> <three/> .... </two> ... <ten/> ... </one> - - - - stylesheet - <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> ... <xsl:template match="two"> <xsl:apply-template select="something that match the element ten wherever it may be in the source tree"/> </xsl:template> ... </xsl:stylesheet> - - - Here the correct select attribute is select="//ten" Using select=".//ten" would select any element named ten (in the null URI namespace) which is at least a grandchildren of the context node (an element named two, as says the match attribute of the xsl:template element). Another interpretation would be that your are using the simplified stylesheet syntax (without an explicit <xsl:stylesheet> element). But in this case you have to use a different name space for literal result elements <one>, <two>, etc. and for the XSLT elements like apply-templates. So a meaningful stylesheet would be: <root xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <one> <two> <xsl:apply-templates select="what to put here if i want to start from the root//ten"> </two> ... </one> <three> ... <ten> ... </ten> ... </three> </root> In this case you question has still no answer. What I understand is that you are somehow trying to have a goto behavior. If that is the case, do not even think about it. Goto is like variable assignement in XSLT: it does not exist and that IS a feature. If I still miss the point, could you be more precise about what you is you data set and what you want to do ? By the way, you should read a good book on XSLT. Hope this helps. -- David -- PS: As far as I know, select="///element... is not legal.
