Re: [xsl] Problem with using xsl:variable within a template in XSL1.0

<xsl:for-each select="//results">
    <xsl:for-each select="//teams/team">

do ypiu _really_ want to do that? // is an expensive operation 9search
entire document to arbitrary depth) and you are searching for results
elements, and then, for each one, ignoring that element and going back
to the top of the document and searching for all team elements, so you
will get multiple identical copies of the output, one for each results
element. 

If there is only one results element, you will of course only get one
copy, but then the 
<xsl:for-each select="//results">
is having no effect on the output at all, just slowing things down,
searchging the entire document for results elements, then doing what it
would have done anyway.
