Thanks you David,

I actually thought about using a key for this, but I give it up because I thought keys were supposed to be used within the same document... But it doesn't seems so : I didn't know about this 3rd optional agrument in key() function !

I use Saxon as XSLT engine.

Thanks a lot David

Matthieu.

you could also do

key('id','123',doc('foo.xml'))

if you have a key set up as

<xsl:key name="id" match="*[@id]" use="@id"/>

using a key is probably quicker than using //*[@id=...] unless your xslt engine compiles them both to the same thing.

David
