I apologize for the incomplete question but it is about 8:00
here and it was getting pretty late. I figured out what I was
doing wrong. The result of a tired mind I guess. Basically, I
was passing the value-of the zipcode element as value of the
variable whereas I should have been doing a copy-of.
8:00 sounds early to me...
You haven't given any explanation as to why you need to copy the elements.
This seems to be a case where your variable should contain references to the
selected elements, not copies of them. In XSLT 1.0 that's only possible if
you can select the nodes in a single XPath expression, but I would hazard a
guess that this is achievable in your case.
In 2.0 you can build a node-set (that is, a variable whose value is a
sequence of references to existing nodes) without being constrained to a
single XPath expression, by virtue of the xsl:sequence instruction.
