I'm trying to apply templates within a for-each but the apply-templates never 
gets executed. The call-template directive works, but then the HTML i'm 
creating (the anchor tag in this case) gets stuck up in <step> rather than 
down where the <xref> is. Here' s the code:

<xsl:template match="step">
        <xsl:variable name="stepnum">
                <xsl:number level="single" count="step" format="1"/>
        </xsl:variable>
        <xsl:variable name="stepid" select="@id"/>

        <p><hr align="left"/><br/>
        <!-- create html anchor if id exists //-->
        <xsl:if test="@id">
                <a name="{@id}"/>
                                                
                <!-- process all <xrefs> pointed to this <step> //-->
                <xsl:for-each select="//xref[@linkend=$stepid]">
                        <xsl:apply-templates select="" mode="step">
                                <xsl:with-param name="linktext" select="$stepnum"/>
                        </xsl:apply-templates>
                </xsl:for-each>                         
                
        </xsl:if>
        <span class="step"><xsl:value-of select="$stepnum"/>. </span>
        <xsl:apply-templates/>
        </p>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="xref" mode="step">
        <xsl:param name="linktext" select="LINK"/>

        <a href="#{@linkend}">
        Step <xsl:value-of select="$linktext"/>
        </a>
</xsl:template>


The goal here is to have the number generated in the processing of <step> to 
be passed to the <xref> to be used as the html anchor tag text.  I'm hoping 
to globally process all <xref> pointing to this step.

I've thought about doing the anchor tag inside the <xref> template, but have 
no way of getting the step's numerical value.

Any ideas??
