Gunther,

Is there a reason I missed why

<xsl:template match='paragraph'>
   <p class='ancestor-or-self::*[@source][last()]/@source'>
     <xsl:apply-templates/>
   </p>
</xsl:template>

wouldn't work for your example?

(And just checking ... XPath experts ... 
ancestor-or-self::*[@source][last()] will give me the *closest* 'source' 
attribute on an ancestor or self ... not the most distant, won't it?)

Cheers,
Wendell
