Search about FXSL. This feature is there (in a way that is allowed by
the XSLT 1.0 language) since 2002.

Hi,
Is there, or shouldn't there be, a way to invoke templates dynamically as
in:
<xsl:apply-templates mode="$mode"/> or
<xsl:call-template name="$name"/>
rather than :
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$mode eq 'mode1'"><xsl:apply-templates mode="mode1"/>
<xsl:when test="$mode eq 'mode2'"><xsl:apply-templates mode="mode2"/>
<xsl:when test="$mode eq 'mode3'"><xsl:apply-templates mode="mode3"/>
...
</xsl:choose>
or
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$mode eq 'mode1'"><xsl:call-template name="name1"/>
<xsl:when test="$mode eq 'mode2'"><xsl:call-template name="name2"/>
<xsl:when test="$mode eq 'mode3'"><xsl:call-template name="name3"/>
...
</xsl:choose>
as the <xsl:choose/> seems clumsy, verbose, repetitive, error-prone, and
counter productive,
especially when also passing invocation parameters (<xsl:with-param .../>) ?
A sample use case may be letting a user select in which mode she wishes to
run a process, payroll for example, in trial, debug, report, post, archive,
or purge modes.
Thanks,
ac
