David,
I may have misinterpreted what you wanted.
I thought you wanted to build a dynamic select statement based on the values
provided in the lookup xml. The way to do that is to use the predicate part of
the xpath to "filter" the desired result sequence to be processed by your
templates. XPath predicates are indicated by [] in the expression.
However, it looks like you want to rename some elements dynamically based on
some LRLookUp1 xml. I was confused by the LR--LookUp--1.
So the following xml
<LRLookUp1>
<Element from="LR/Name" to="Name"/>
<Element from="LR/City" to="HomeTown"/>
</LRLookUp1>
Says translate <LR><City>Boston</City></LR> into <HomeTown>Boston</HomeTown>
and translate <LR><Name>David</Name></LR> into <Name>David</Name>. Right?
So you might accomplish that this way:
<xsl:variable name="lookup" select="document(<uri>)"/>
<xsl:template match="LR/Name">
<xsl:element name="$lookup/Element[(_at_)from='LR/Name']/@to">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="LR/City">
<xsl:element name="$lookup/Element[(_at_)from='LR/City']/@to">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
Hope that helps.

Thanks for help, but still stuck!
I apologize for my stupidy on many levels:
1) mis-spelling Data-Driven as Data-Dtriven
2) The copy & paste from XMLSpy stuck the irrelevant
chars "3D" all over the place
3) not really getting your solution - your solution
seems to depend on the LR.XML file having elements
with a from attribute - these elements don't have
attributes. So, I'm still stuck!
Thanks - even if you can no longer spare any time for
a newbie!

Subject: RE: [xsl] Variables and HTML
Why will d-o-e be deprecated in XSLT 2.0 when
there are valid
use cases for
it?
I think the simplest answer to that is: because it's
an architectural
abomination; it requires extensions to the data
model that are difficult to
specify and expensive to implement; it can only be
made to work in special
cases where the transformer and the serializer are
very closely coupled, and
that's something we don't want to encourage.
But when you ask for the reasons why a working group
made a particular
decision, you might find that different people give
you different answers.

In addition to Michael's reasons, there is also the
fact that 2.0 has
character maps that can be used for many of the
things that d-o-e is
used for in a slightly less disruptivew ay
architecturally.

To expand on that, one of the problems with d-o-e is
that you can go
<xsl:value-of select="'<br>'"/>
<xsl:value-of disable-output-escaping="yes"
select="'<br>'"/>
and the model is that that puts something into the
result tree which
when linearised at the end of the process produces
<br><br>
The trouble is that, as specified, there isn't
really anything that can
