Ok, but that's not the case when using variable. And i change that to
<xsl:value-of
select="document('connections.xml')/connections/connection[(_at_)id=(_dot_)/Conn]"/>
but it still doen´t work the way i expected...

Why is this xpath NOT working
<xsl:value-of
select="document('connections.xml')/connections/connection[(_at_)id
=Conn]"/>
and this IS
<xsl:variable name="conn" select="Conn"/>
<xsl:value-of
select="document('connections.xml')/connections/connection[(_at_)id
=$conn]"/>
Because the context for evaluating a path expression (such as Conn) is
different depending on where it's written. In your furst case, it's looking
for Conn as a child element of connection.
