RE: Overrid items that are included

The answer to your question is Yes. 

XSLT 2.0 describes this more formally, though the rules have not actually
changed. If one stylesheet module includes another, then they are part of
the same "stylesheet layer". All declarations in a stylesheet layer have the
same import precedence. An xsl:import anywhere within a stylesheet layer
gives the declarations in the imported stylesheet module, and all other
declarations in that stylesheet layer, a lower import precedence than the
declarations in the importing layer. A template rule with higher import
precedence overrides a rule with lower import precedence.

Subject: [xsl] Overrid items that are included

Hello,

If I have a base template that I import into the current 
working template,
if that base template file *includes* other templates, can 
those included
templates be overridden just as if they were originally part 
of the base
template file?

Let me illustrate:

incl_template_a.xsl
incl_template_b.xsl

BASE_TEMPLATE.xsl
  INCLUDES-->  incl_template_a.xsl
  INCLUDES-->  incl_template_a.xsl

WORKING_TEMPLATE.xsl
  IMPORTS--> BASE_TEMPLATE.xsl


The question:  Is it possible to override template rules in 
incl_template_a
& _b within WORKING_TEMPLATE.xsl?

Karl
