You don't say what's in the variables.
If the variables hold element names, you can do
*[name()=$var1]/*[name()=$var2]
If the variables hold more than this, for example if they hold fragments of
XPath like "@att" or "following-sibling::text()" then this approach doesn't
work, you need to use an extension such as saxon:evaluate() which allows
dynamic construction of XPath expressions.

Subject: [xsl] Concatenating multiple variables in a XPath statement
Hi,
I want to know if it is possible to make a XPath with
multiple variables, something like "$var1/$var2". This kind
of query has errors. In fact I think that placing a "/" befor
$ makes the problem.
How can I use a query like this:
<xsl:value-of select="/rootElement/body/$colName" /> or
<xsl:value-of select="/$var1/$var2" />
Thanks in advance.
