giacomo,

Thanks,

I've been wondering what the {../1} terminology was all about recently and 
now I know! :-)

I discovered that the problem was a combination of that, and the fact that 
the xslt generator was removing spaces that turned out to be critical for 
the xsp to work. A slight change to the xslt solved that one.

However, based purely on a general sense of sluggishness, it looks to me 
that the caching mechanisms are not preventing the re-compiling of the xsp 
each time through the loop.  Perhaps this is a known limitation at the 
moment, or maybe I've not switched the right thing on!

Cheers,

Stuart.
