just to add to M Kay prev post

you would use the following syntax to call a template

for example
<xsl:call-template name="sometemplatefunction">
   <xsl:with-param name="my_nodes_i_want_to_apply_more_stuff_too"
select="/mynodes" />
</xsl:call-template>

see that the <xsl:with-param/> has a 'select statement

then the accompanying named template must declare a xsl:param to use it
within the context of the template
as so;
<xsl:template name="sometemplatefunction">
  <xsl:param name="my_nodes_i_want_to_apply_more_stuff_too" select="/.." />

no do more stuff .....
</xsl:template>
