I can't see what this has to do with parameters.
When you do apply-templates, each node that you select it processed by
exactly one template rule. If something is being processed twice, then
there's a flaw in your logic somewhere.

Subject: [xsl] Help with Parameters
Dear All:
I am trying to implement a parameter into my style sheet, but
am having some problems.
I need to output the <desc> element in two different ways.
I first introduce the parameter with the following code:
<xsl:apply-templates select="parent::example/desc"
mode="leader"> <xsl:with-param
name="special_desc">yes</xsl:with-param>
</xsl:apply-templates>
The template for <desc> is:
<xsl:template match="example/desc" mode="leader"> <xsl:param
name="special_desc"/> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when
test="$special_desc='yes'"> <fo:wrapper font-style="italic"
font-weight="normal">
<xsl:text>    </xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</fo:wrapper>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
This works, however, I need another template for <desc> to
cover all other occurrences of <desc> in the file that do not
fall under the parameter. I therefore have the following template:
<xsl:template match="desc">
<fo:block margin-left="8em" font-style="italic"
font-weight="normal">
<xsl:apply-templates select="@* | *[contains(@type,
$my_version) or string-length(@type)=0] | text()"/>
</fo:block>
</xsl:template>
Unfortunately, the <desc> text that matches the parameter is
being output twice: once in the pattern outlined in the
parameter and once in the pattern outlined in the generic
<desc> template. How can I get the <desc> text matching the
parameter to output only once (as outlined by the parameter)
and still allow all other cases of the <desc> text to output
as outlined by the generic "desc" template?
Thank you very much for any help that you may provide me. I
sincerely appreciate it!
Best wishes,
