In XSLT 1.0, when you supply a node-set to a function or an instruction that
expects a string (for example xsl:value-of or concat()), you get the string
value of the first node in the set.

I don't think this is the problem, or maybe it is but
manifested in a different way. What I'm trying to do is get
one long string of several different types of targets, so my
real variable is defined like this:
<xsl:variable name="builds"
select="concat(/project/target[(_at_)name='all']/@depends,
' ', /project/target[(_at_)name='books']/@depends,
' ', /project/target[contains(@name, 'stuff')]/@depends, ' ',
/project/target[(_at_)name='plugins']/@depends,
' ', /project/target[(_at_)name='help']/@depends
)"/>
When I use the value of this builds variable, I get a list of
something from all and the one item from the contains. Maybe
I need to switch to a key and use that instead?

Try looping through your variable to see if it really only

Subject: [xsl] Only selectingn first occurance?
I have the following variable defintion:
<xsl:variable name="builds"
select="/project/target[contains(@name, '_stuff')]/@depends"/>
If I use this in Stylus studio and use the XPath evaluator, the
XPath gives me all instances of the Ant targets where the name
attribute has _stuff as part of the name. But when I use
this this
as part of my stylesheet, I only get the first occurance.
Here is the contents of the variable:
"common92, confgwiz92, smart_update92, tempbuild92"
And this is the XPath evaluator window results, it shows
4 hits on
this path with results of
common92 configwiz92 smart_update92 tempbuild92
common100 common100_smart_update
wli92 wlibc92 adminhelp92 ...
wli102-alint wli102 wlibc102 ....
How do I change the <xsl:variable> to find the content of all the
targets and not just the first one?

Why do you think it's only selecting the first attribute?
If you use xsl:value-of to show the result it will only show the
first node in the variable.
Show how you are using $builds.
