saxon:call-template

The saxon:call-template instruction is identical to xsl:call-template except that the template name can be written as an attribute value template, allowing the actual template that is called to be selected at run time.

Typical usage is:
<saxon:call-template name="{$tname}"/>

This feature replaces the saxon:allow-avt attribute that was provided on xsl:call-template in earlier releases. The XSLT 2.0 rules on extension attributes have been tightened up, making it clear that the earlier design was non-conformant.

The saxon:call-template instruction allows xsl:fallback as a child element, so that fallback behaviour can be defined for other XSLT processors when they encounter this instruction.
