Is it possible to extract a value from the xml data and place it into a
stylesheet variable at the time of processing ?
er, yes of course
<xsl:variable name="x" select="elementname"/>
makes $x refer to the element node selected by elementname
But I suspect that wasn't the question you meant to ask?
My reason for needing to do this is that I would like to restrict the number
of 'rows' returned by the style sheet dynamically.
Typically you wouldn't need a variable to do that, so I'm not sure how
that relates to your question.
