For-each sequence

2005-04-07 06:11:40

After replacing a simple recurisive named template in favour of an XPath
2.0 sequence constructor, I've hit the following problem.  This code:

<div>
  <xsl:for-each select="1 to 10">
    <span id="{(_at_)id}">.</span>
  </xsl:for-each>
</div>

...now fails because the AVT is attempting to walk the attribute axis of
the atomic values.

Any ideas how I can access the source XML from within the for-each -
without modifying the AVT itself?  (The AVT is added to the HTML
elements by a stylesheet and I don't really want to add a very specific
rule for this case)

A potential solution is:

<div>
  <xsl:variable name="sourceEl" select="."/>
  <xsl:for-each select="1 to 10">
    <xsl:for-each select="$sourceEl">
      <span id="{(_at_)id}">.</span>
    </xsl:for-each>
  </xsl:for-each>
</div>

Is there another way?

thanks
andrew
