Re: [xsl] combining multiple documents

Actually, they are not. They appear to be global mappings from nodes to values. If they were global mappings from values to nodes then we would have exactly what I want. The problem is that the names in these mappings have what appears to me to be both a counter intuitive and an unnecessary context sensitivity (since a key reference returns a value that does not rely upon the matching criteria but upon an implied context.

With respect,
Steven

Neither of those features though have any bearing on the way keys
are defined, which are global mappings from values to nodes.
