Below I'm trying to match certain nodes.

<xsl:template match="nodes">    
    <element>
        <xsl:apply-templates select="nodes" mode="different" />
    </element>
</xsl:template>

Now, there are multiple ways of processing for the same nodes. I want to use this different way of processing within the current way of processing. That's why I perform apply-templates on the same selection, which is nodes, however the mode is different now.

Here's how the different mode could look like:

    <xsl:template match="nodes" mode="different">
<!-- another way of processing these nodes -->
</xsl:template>

Now, this does not work. Only the first type of processing is processed and the apply-templates call is simply not applied.

What am I doing wrong, how can I get what I want using XSLT? What could be another approach to solve this problem?
