By 'function application', I think, David means a "function call" ... > Perhaps asking how an XSLT construct maps to a Java construct is wrong, since XSLT is a > rule-based language and Java is not. Do you agree? The 'programming abstractions' (which is something like a "rule based" programming system) that XSLT provides to a 'XSLT programmer', are different in nature, than 'programming abstractions' (which is an object oriented, imperative programming system) provided by Java, to a 'Java programmer'. -- Regards, Mukul Gandhi
