Hi Bernie,
It is not possible to include on any other place than as a top-level
element (this counts for both xsl:inclue and xsl:import). Perhaps you
can split your XSL and do something like the following and put them in
main.xsl:
<xsl:import href="header.xsl" />
<xsl:import href="body.xsl" />
<xsl:import href="footer.xsl" />
Another approach you could use, is using the xsl:apply-templates and
call a matching rule from the included xsl file. Something like this
(should go in the header.xsl):
<xsl:template match="field/text" mode="header">
.. do you header thing ...
</xsl:template>
Place the following on the place where you wanted the included XSL:
<xsl:apply-templates select="text/[(_at_)name='activeTab']" mode="header" />
Now you can place the xsl:import command anywhere you like (as a
top-level element, that is) and you can call the xsl:apply-templates
whenever you wanted to "include" the header. The reason I add "mode"
attribute is because I think you would otherwise have a conflicting match.
HtH,
Cheers,

Excuse my english, I'll try to explain that as better as I can:
I have a group of XSL that use common HTML and XSL elements. I'd like
to make a new and unique XSL as an include which gathers these common
items.
Concise example:
xml:
===
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<theForm>
<fields>
<text name="activeTab">tab one</text>
<text name="title">The title of the page</text>
</fields>
</theForm>
Main XSL:
=======
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:output method="html" encoding="utf-8" indent="yes"
doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" />
<xsl:template match="/">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Bla bla bla</title>
<link href="/css/main.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
</head>
<body>
<xsl:apply-templates />
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="theForm">
<xsl:apply-templates />
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="fields">
<div id="divGenContainer">
<!-- HERE IS WHERE I WANT TO INCLUDE THE HEADER XSL/HTML -->
<div id="divContents">
<xsl:value-of select="text[(_at_)name='title']" />
</div>
</div>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
The include file (XSL/HTML) should have some like the following content:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<xsl:value-of select="text[(_at_)name='activeTab']" />
-------
Thanx in advance.
Bernie.

It is maybe my low level of knowledge in English, but I didn't
understand your question. Could you reformulate? An simple example
could be more precise than prose.
