would work even better (it binds the retrieved nodes to the variable, not
the string value of the first one).
Just for clarification, does this imply that I may use the following to
access the node info:
<xsl:value-of select="$linkRef/link">
Yes, it does (assuming the variable's still in scope). If the id() function
has returned a node with a link child, you may even get a value. :->
But keep in mind the value-of instruction *always* gets you a single string
(in this case, the string value of the first link child of the first of the
nodes in $linkref).
Cheers,
Wendell
