Why does this DWIM:
<xsl:variable name="foobar" select="@name"/> <xsl:value-of select="document('inst.xml')//*[boolean(name() = $foobar)]"/> and this doesn't: <xsl:value-of select="document('inst.xml')//*[boolean(name() = @name)]"/> ... or perhaps I should say, how do I scope @name inside a select to refer to the @name attribute of the context node outside the select, instead of whatever it's referring to here (... an attribute named @name in the context node inside the select?) Also if you're wondering about the unnecessary boolean() I've decided to use it for syntactic safety to protect myself from numeric result s;-) simon --- www.simonwoodside.com <http://ThisURLEnablesEmailToGetThroughOverzealousSpamFilters.org> XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
