RE: for-each loop in node set variable gives error

Your variable $employeeList is a result tree fragment and XSLT 1.0 does not
allow you to use an RTF in a path expression. You need the xx:node-set()
extension function, or an XSLT 2.0 processor, or an XSLT 1.0 processor that
relaxes this rule.

P.S. You might not be able to make sense of the error message, but there are
many people on this list who can, and who would be able to answer your
question more quickly if you quoted it.

Subject: [xsl] for-each loop in node set variable gives error

Hello List,
          My stylesheet contains following
declarations

declaration 1:
<xsl:variable name="employeeList">
      <xsl:for-each select="//employee/*[name()!='max']">
              <xsl:if test="count(key('employee', @id))=0">
                      <xsl:copy>
                              <xsl:copy-of
select="property[(_at_)name='cast']/@val"/>
                              <xsl:copy-of select="@name"/>
                              <xsl:copy-of 
select="property[(_at_)name='language']"/>
                      </xsl:copy>
              </xsl:if>
      </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:variable>

declaration 2:
<xsl:variable name="generatedEmployees">
      <xsl:for-each select="$employeeList/*">
              <xsl:sort select="@val"/>
              <xsl:copy-of select="."/>
      </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:variable>

for-each loop for $employeeList/* in declaration 2
gives error. I don't understand why it gives error.
Any clue?

regards,
Ranjan
