I have a pattern-matching template which calls (ie with call-template) a

valid throughout the pattern-matched template it isn't clear whether it
remains accessible from within the called template. Can someone please
tell me whether it is or not? I'm sure when I was working on something
a while ago I concluded that it is accessible, but now it isn't
happening. I'm not sure whether I've got the addressing wrong or
whether I've misremembered and it is not in fact possible.
I have XML data that contains elements like this :
<symbol name="sysORIndex">
<table-object entry-name="sysOREntry" sequence-name="SysOREntry"
table-name="sysORTable"/>
<object-type max-access="not-accessible" status="current">
...
</object-type>
</symbol>
Sometimes the table-object is not present.
My main XSLT template starts:
<xsl:template match="symbol/object-type" mode="slotmap">
Within that I can use "../table-object" to access the table-object element.
That template calls another:
<xsl:call-template name="insert">
<xsl:with-param name= ... />
Within "insert" should I be able to use "../table-object" to access the
table-object element?
Actually there is another level, as "insert" calls another:
<xsl:call-template name="integer-template-param" >
<xsl:with-param ... />
Does that make a difference ? I'd have thought that either the original
context node would be accessible from all levels of called templates, or
none.
An xsl:call-template does not change the context node, of course using
an xsl:for-each for instance inside the called template then would. You
haven't provided a minimal but complete sample of XSLT, XML, output you
want and output or error you get to allow us to tell what fails and why.
