xsltGetCurrentTemplate: Query the active node or template
In sckott/sxslt: R extension for libxslt

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) References See Also

These functions allow the R programmer to query which XML node or XSL template is currently active, i.e. being processed. These can be useful for debugging purposes but also for being able to fetch the template and apply it to other nodes or when the R function needs more information about the node than was supplied by the XSL call to the R function. This last situation indicates sub-optimal XSL programming.
