<xsl:variable name="aFrag">
<xsl:element name="aaa">
<xsl:element name="bbb">Stuff</xsl:element>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:variable>
that is just a long way of writing
<xsl:variable name="aFrag">
<aaa>
<bbb>Stuff</bbb>
</aaa>
</xsl:variable>
in particular it generates nodes in the default namepsace which in your
case is
xmlns="automationgroups.com/docdebug"
however Xpath "$aNd//bbb looks for bbb in no namespace, you want
"$aNd//x:bbb
and xmlns:x="automationgroups.com/docdebug" somewhere above so the x:
prefix is in scope.
