[xsl] Structuring Re-useable XSLT Code for HTML

["gary cor" <stuff4gary at hotmail dot com>]

Dear All,

Any advise of pointers regarding structuring reusable XSLT code would be 
very much appreciated...

I am building a large amount of complicated HTML pages using XSLT.  I have 
separated out the commonly used variables in HTML pages into their own XSL 
file that mostly relates to my XML and is imported by all pages.  Also, I 
have a global file that containes various templates that I can pass 
parameters into to draw commonly used tables, boxes and other page elements 
that repeat without much variation more easily across most pages with 
maximum use.  The problem I am having with creating templates and reuse is 
largley due to lack of experience on my part with XML and the reason I am 
hoping for some advise.  I am hoping someone can point me in the right 
direction to structuring master templates?..

I had thought it might be a nice idea to structure some master tables in 
XSLT that would take the same parameters as the Simple Page Master in XSL FO 
and then draw the same table but it HTML with some paging also.  I am very 
curious what other people think on this or if anything is out there in open 
source at the moment as I think this would be useful knowledge for everyone 
as well as something I would like to work at improving.

Kind Regards

G.
