[xsl] Accessing xml node data using variable. Thanks, exactly my problem

<You want

<xsl:value-of select="root/*[name() = $MyTitleName]"/>



Thank you Michael Kay! I was struggling with exactly this problem, and 
had just constructed an enquiry to the list, and was about to send it 
when this came in.
Everytime I am away from active xslt work for a few months I have 
trouble working through this kind of thing.
I understand the need to not have variables in xpath (p118 of _XSLT 2.0_ 
 M. Kay), but it does seem odd to have to go to this kind of length to 
get the same result. Does this mean that the processor has to go through 
every node every time?
Thanks,

David Riggs,  Kyoto
