I think(?) I know what the problem is, as David solved this exact
problem for me here on this list a few days ago - here is his response
to my problem:
-------------------------------------
if you use xsl:variable with content rather than a select attribute it
_always_ generates a result tree fragment corresponding to a root node
(/) with children containing whatever is generated, so if you use
xx:node-set() on that you always get back a node set consisting of
exactly one node, / you presumably want to access
msxsl:node-set($sorted_legislators)/*
David
-------------------------------------
So, I think you need to
change this
<xsl:for-each select="exslt:node-set($items)">
to this
<xsl:for-each select="exslt:node-set($items)/*">

OK, I'm trying the node-set function (using Xalan-J 2.6).
This:
<xsl:variable name="items">
<xsl:for-each select="//item[(_at_)class=$current-class]">
<xsl:sort select="@id"
order="{ancestor::subsection/@sort}" />
<xsl:copy-of select="." />
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:for-each select="exslt:node-set($items)">
<xsl:message>
<xsl:value-of select="local-name()" />:
<xsl:value-of select="@class" />:
<xsl:value-of select="@id" />
</xsl:message>
</xsl:for-each>
produces only one <xsl:message> where @class, @id and local-name() are
all blank.
Does anyone know why?
Cheers,
Richard
