Weel, i have a xslt that is getting bigger and bigger

  <xsl:template match="/">
    <XPage class="Tester">
      <Components>
        <xsl:apply-templates select="/Formatos/Forms/Form[1]" />
        <xsl:apply-templates select="/Formatos/Forms/Form[1]/Campos" />
         (...)
      </Components>
      <Events>
        <Event method="changeValue" target="btnProceed" type="ActionHandler"
/>
        <Event method="addNewRecord" target="btnAddNew" type="ActionHandler"
/>
          (...)
      </Events>
      <Data>
        <Bind target="tblOne" source="Empreitada" />
         (...)
      </Data>
    </XPage>
  </xsl:template>

and wanted to put it like

  <xsl:template match="/">
    <XPage class="Tester">
      <xsl:include href="xcomponents.xsl" />
      <xsl:include href="xevents.xsl" />
      <xsl:include href="xdata.xsl" />
    </XPage>
  </xsl:template>

Maybe i've overlooked something, but i'm not much experienced in XSL.

You might be overlooking named templates. For example you could have a template "make-data":

<xsl:template name="make-data">
  <Data>
    <Bind target="tblOne" source="Empreitada" />
    (...)
  </Data>
</xsl:template>

and then call it with <xsl:call-template name="make-data"/>.

These are most useful when you have code that needs to be reused, but modularity is another advantage.

These can also be managed in separate files and made available using the usual xsl:include or xsl:import features.

Thanks.

Sure thing -- enjoy,
Wendell
