xsl:template (name)

Defining a name for a template, makes it passible to 'call' this template directly by name.

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
  <xsl:template name="test">
    ...
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
					

Use the call-template element to invoke a named template.

<xsl:call-template name="test"/>

The match and name attribute can be specified on the same template.
