How right you are - that is exactly the error that made me think text values could not be set with the select attribute. Thanks, Mark

Thanks Ken.

Because all the variables I had constructed using the select="some text" idiom seemed to have no value when accessed, I adopted the text node approach. I'll go back and look at my old code now to see if there was another reason for the value-setting failure.

You probably forgot the nested quotes

select="'some text'"

It's easily done - there was an example of the error in the original
XSLT 1.0 specification.
