Hi.
You can not do that.
Try this instead:
<xsl:when test="not($before[(_at_)*[name()=$attributeName]='Footnote']">
Hope that this helps you.

Subject: [xsl] Using a variable as an attribute name
One of the developers here is trying to do a test on a attribute where
the attribute name is contained in a variable.
We're getting an illegal character error on the test line. Is what he's
trying to do even legal or are we taking the wrong tack on this?
<xsl:variable name="attributeName" select="'charstyname'"/>
<xsl:variable name="before" select="preceding-sibling::*[1]"/>
<xsl:when test="not( $before[(_at_)$attributeName='Footnote'] )">
[...]
</xsl:when>
Thanks
Dave
