David,

Thanks for responding! I will provide more
information.

The way I have it setup is as follows:


I am going to call this XML snippet the master XML
because it calls the other language spaecific XMLs.
This is because I want one PDF output with all
languages.

There are more languages with the same concept.

Here is the XSL Snippet:

<!--This is declared at the top of the FO style
sheet-->
<xsl:key name="terms" match="term" use="@id"/>
  <xsl:template match="/">

<xsl:template match="warning">
  <fo:block text-align="center">
     <fo:table border-style="solid" border-width="1pt"
space-after="2.5mm">
       <fo:table-column column-width="75%"/>
       <fo:table-body>
         <fo:table-row>
           <fo:table-cell padding-top="2mm">
             <fo:block text-align="center"
font-weight="bold">
                <fo:external-graphic
content-width=".3in" src="warning.eps"/> 	            
                
                <xsl:for-each
select="key('terms','warning')">
                   <xsl:text>&#160;</xsl:text>
                   <xsl:value-of select="@text"/>
                </xsl:for-each>
             </fo:block>
           </fo:table-cell>
         </fo:table-row>
         <fo:table-row>
