> I'm curious about an issue which I have been thinking about

> transformed to HTML and a number of other formats. During the
> transformation I may need to do some user specific
> processing, such as
> changing the language of the text from English to French.
> After spending
> some time reading various techniques to do so I have realized
> that I will
> need to process two transformations, first from XML ->
> HTML/XML with some
> additional tags identifying nodes which need translation,
> second processing
> the translatable nodes to the appropriate language.
>
> My question is this: Can I process both transformations
> simultaneously? I
> was thinking along the lines of a stylesheet that contains
> templates for
> matching text nodes which are potentially translatable, if a
> translation
> property is set the first template will call the translation
> template to do
> the text replacement before completing the first template.
>
> Does this seem like a reasonable approach or should I stick
> with sequential
> transformations of the document?
>
> Any help or advice is greatly appreciated!
