Ah ha! Double the single quotes inside a pair of single quotes! I was trying to
use & #39; inside single quotes. And thanks for pointing out the "separator"
attribute.

Incidentally, the expression
for $i in $code-list return $i
is just a long-winded way of writing
$code-list

Subject: [xsl] Help quoting sequence elements
I have this variable defined in my stylesheet:
<xsl:variable name="code-list"
select="document('../../hiring-report/xml/position-translation
.xml')/position-translation/position/code[(_at_)pf='pf']" />
In a template, I have this element:
<xsl:value-of select="for $i in $code-list return $i" />
which produces output like this:
ACC ACT AO ATT AUD BA CI CLK ...
This is good, but I need output like this:
'ACC',' ACT',' AO',' ATT',' AUD',' BA',' CI',' CLK', ...
That is to say, I need the individual elements of the
sequence to be surrounded by single quotes and separated by commas.
I've been reviewing some examples, but can't figure out how
to employ concat() to get the result I need. I'm at the point
where I've concluded that there is something fundamental I
don't understand here and I'm asking for someone to point it out.
Thanks.
This produces
