XSLT merge?

[COFFMAN Steven <SC...@CBSINC.com>]

Hi,
	Does anyone know how to merge XSLT result trees? For instance, I
need to create an HTML page with a table of contents at the top of the same
page. The tree needs to be walked twice, but transformed differently the
second time. I'd be really grateful if anyone has a solution.

Things were so much easier when I stuck to FOP.

Easy, just use different modes within the stylesheet:

  <xsl:template match="page">
    <!-- html -->
    <xsl:apply-templates select="section" mode="toc"/>
    <!-- html -->
    <xsl:apply-templates select="section"/> <!-- default rules -->
    <!-- html -->
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template match="section" mode="toc">
    <!-- produce table of contents -->
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template match="section">
    <!-- produce full view -->
  </xsl:template>
