That'd be great! Actually I spotted this missing feature recently when implementing 'Jelly Stylesheet Language', JSL... http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/sandbox/jelly/ > Also, I think the Action interface is somewhat deficient in that it has no > way to get a reference to the associated Stylesheet.

Agreed. Though an Action might need all kinds of extra information. You can always implement your own Action class that has whatever properties you wish. Also you can use anonymous inner classes... final Stylesheet stylesheet = ...; Action action = new Action() { public void run(Node node) { stylesheet.applyTemplates(node, "myelement"); } }; Would that do?
