Hi again Matthieu,
I have been rereading your mail here, and have a couple of thoughts.

Thank you for your answer Ragulf !
I tried :
<xsl:for-each select="msxsl:node-set($NodeSetXpathNode)/xpath">
<xsl:variable name="var" select="'/foo/@bar'"/>
<xsl:value-of select="dyn:evaluate(.,$var)"/>
</xsl:for-each>
I do not get error message anymore, but unfortunately the template is not
applied.
Here, I think the problem is, that you are not in the domain of the
document, but rather of the nodeset (contained in
msxsl:node-set($NodeSetXpathNode)/xpath). I think you will have to
shift the contents to the document. Perhaps something link
dyn:evaluate($root,$var)"/> where $root is the root element in the
input document (<xsl:variable name="root" select="/">).
If this works, then the same applies to your real problem.
and that's it ! I don't get error anymore with this code.
(actually I don't really see why... maybe select="." select a text node,
which is not considered as a string ?)
The select="." does not select a text() node, but rather the current
node, which will be the different xpath elements in the nodeset.
Therefore there is a vast difference of writing:
<xsl:variable name="foo" select="'bar'"/> <!-- String with value "bar" -->
<xsl:variable name="foo" select="bar"/> <!-- Element called "bar" -->
That you have when you say select="." is essentially the same as the
latter of the two. Therefore the string conversion is needed.
Within the node-set iteration, "." represents the iterated node and not any
node of the xml tree.
Is there a way, within the iteration, to come back to another context node,
the root of the xml file for example ?
See first part of mail.
I hope this is of some help
Ragulf Pickaxe :-)
