David and Jeni,
You could optimize further by removing the call
<xsl:call-template name="markup">
<xsl:with-param name="text"
select="substring-before($text, 'document')" />
</xsl:call-template>
since we know that this string won't have the target string in it.
Not that this'll save a huge amount....
OTOH, I persist in thinking that David has happened on what is going to
become a fairly general pattern -- even if he is only "hiding" the recursion.
Cheers,
Wendell

Yes, you're right - thanks.
In some unscientific tests on a 3 meg files, your version is taking between
35% and 50% less time than mine.
Thanks,
David.
