I tried to create a variable to hold this stylesheet but when
I output the variable - it is empty.
Like I try
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="2.0" xmlns:saxon="http://saxon.sf.net/";>
<xsl:variable name="PATH" select="REPORT/REPORT_FORMAT/PARENT_NODE"/>
<xsl:variable name="ORDER_BY"
select="REPORT/REPORT_FORMAT/ORDER_BY"/>
<xsl:variable name="ORDER_BY_TOKEN"
select="tokenize($ORDER_BY,'\s*,\s*')"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:output indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:variable name="NEW_STYLESHEET"
<xsl:element name="xsl:transform">
....
</xsl:element>
</xsl:variable>
That's fine so far.
<xsl:value-of select="$NEW_STYLESHEET"/>
xsl:value-of flattens whatever you give it into a single text node: it loses
all the markup. If you want to see what's in the variable, use xsl:copy-of.
To do the transformation, you just want
<xsl:copy-of select="saxon:transform(/, $NEW_STYLESHEET)"/>
