RE: [xsl] Key to select all same nodes(same @id) except current node

Could you please tell me what is wrong in xpath 
"ancestor::$parentvar[2]" . It gives error saying it is not a 
valid xpath.

Well, that's what's wrong with it - it isn't a valid XPath. You made up the
syntax, and I've no idea what you thought it might mean. The thing after the
"::" should be a node test, which says what kind of nodes you want to
select, e.g. "foo" to select foo elements, or "*" to select all elements.

Perhaps you meant $parentvar/ancestor::*[2]? I've no idea, I can only guess.
