Thank you for this, it has given me the inspiration I needed. After a short
nap I was able to build on it and came up with:
<xsl:template match='target/*' mode='parameters'>
<xsl:param name='caption'/>
<xsl:variable name='name' select='name()'/>
<xsl:value-of select='$caption/*[name()=$name]/@value'/>
</xsl:template>

George,
This is cool. Nicely done.

After sleeping on it I was able to answer my own question, however I
suspect that that p1 and p2 templates could be generalised to handle
any named parameter, but haven't figured that out yet.
How about
<xsl:template match='p' mode='parameters'>
<xsl:param name='caption'/>
<xsl:variable name="@name"/>
<xsl:value-of select='$caption/p[(_at_)name=$name]/@value'/>
</xsl:template>
Then you'd need
<caption key='Client not on file'>
<p name="client-no" value='123456'/>
<p name="priority" value='99'/>
</caption>
and
<target xml:lang='en'>Client number <p name="client-no"/> not
on file.
Priority:
<p name="priority"/></target>
You've already done the hard part. Too bad the parameter
names have to be
in one language. :-)
Cheers,
Wendell
