Either name your templates, and use xsl:call-template, or create more specific templates for your tables. If they have distinguishing features, use filters in your XPath expressions: e.g. <xsl:template match="table[@name='useMe']"> Or, if they do not, and you are certain that you can say where in the document the special cases are, use the position() method in your XPath statement: <xsl:template match="table[position() = 2]"> which will take the nodeset created when you call the <xsl:apply-templates /> method on the <body> node, and apply this particular template to the second node. Or, if you were only interesting in processing the one specific table element (and its children), and no other child of the body tag, you could use the select attribute in <xsl:apply-templates />, using the same XPath statements and filters as above. > 2. <table> tag in wml requires columns attribute with number > of colums. > So actually I need to count number of <td> in first <tr> of the table > (lets say there are no colspans and rowspans in html) > <xsl:value-of select="count(tr/td)" /> - gives me a number of > all <td> in > the table > I found a way out: > <xsl:value-of select="count(tr/td) div count(tr) "/> > (to divide number of cells by number of rows :-)) > but that is probably not the best way doing it Thats as elegant a way as any other. Though you could probably extend it to account for rowspan and colspan attributes to make it more generic. Ben XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
