xsl:call-template does not work in XSL

I am trying to call the below template from my code . But I keep getting javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: ElemTemplateElement error: incrementValue.For a different template I still get javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: ElemTemplateElement error: templateName.Since the stylesheet is too long I am pasting the relevant code of the stylesheet. Can someone let me know what I am doing wrong ??

Your xsl:if, xsl:value-of and xsl:variable all need to exist inside an xsl:template, xsl:variable or xsl:param, I am not sure whether they are not.

An xsl:template must be a child of xsl:stylesheet only.

You need to remove the template definitions from inside the first <xsl:template match="/">

Define the incrementValue template seperate and put the content of the other template inside the main <xsl:template match="/">

so you have something like this:

<xsl:stylesheet version = '2.0'
 xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
 xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
 xmlns:xdt="http://www.w3.org/2005/02/xpath-datatypes"
 xmlns:mngi="www.medianewsgroup.com"
 exclude-result-prefixes="xs xdt mngi dirReader"
 xmlns:date="http://exslt.org/dates-and-times"
 xmlns:utildate="xalan://java.util.Date"
 xmlns:dirReader="xalan://com.mngi.eidos.util.DirectoryReader"
 extension-element-prefixes="date utildate dirReader">
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:output method="xml"
            indent="yes"
            encoding="utf-8"
            doctype-system="/SysConfig/Classify/Dtd/MNG/classify-story.dtd"/>
    ...

<xsl:variable name="totalPhotos" select="dirReader:totalPhotos($PhotoPath)"/>

    ...

    <xsl:template match="/">

        ...

        <xsl:if test="$totalPhotos &gt; 0">
            <photoName>
            <!--xsl:value-of select="$currentIdx"/-->
                <xsl:variable name="photoFromIndex" select="dirReader:photoNameWithIndex($currentIdx,$PhotoPath)"/>
                <xsl:value-of select="concat($PhotoPath,'',$photoFromIndex)"/>
            </photoName>
            <xsl:call-template name="incrementValue">
                <xsl:with-param name="currentIdx" select="$currentIdx"/>
            </xsl:call-template>
        </xsl:if>    
    </xsl:template>
    <xsl:template name="incrementValue">
        <xsl:param name="currentIdx"/>
        <xsl:if test="$currentIdx &lt; $totalPhotos">
            <xsl:value-of select="$currentIdx"/>
            <photoName>
                <xsl:variable name="photoFromIndex" select="dirReader:photoNameWithIndex($currentIdx,$PhotoPath)"/>
                <xsl:value-of select="concat($PhotoPath,'',$photoFromIndex)"/>
            </photoName>
        </xsl:if>
    </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

EDIT: Variables used in both templates will have to be declared globally as I have done with <xsl:variable name="totalPhotos" select="dirReader:totalPhotos($PhotoPath)"/> above so they are available to both templates because at the minute they are only scoped to the template they are in. or you can pass them as parameters as is done with <xsl:with-param name="currentIdx" select="$currentIdx"/>. If there are variables that only exist in the incrementValue template move out of the main template into that one.

WARNING: This is untested as I don't fully understand the problem due to lack of input so I am only sorting out the syntax.
