Rahul,
The only other way to do it is to use two stylesheets. The first generates
a stylesheet in which the XPath appears as an honest XPath, not a string.
Then you run this stylesheet over your source document.
Check the FAQ or another online resource on stylesheets to generate
stylesheets. (Your first stylesheet may be pretty simple: it's just a copy
of your second stylesheet with a call to include the value of your variable
as the expression in the relevant spot.) Once you've tried that, ask again
if you get stuck: there are list readers who have done this.
Regards,
Wendell

ways of doing this?
