[xsl] global xsl:variable problem, value not being set

2009-09-07 06:05:14
I am not sure what i am doing wrong ... but i am setting a global
xsl:variable which I then refer to within the template but in the
output transform the variable is always blank,

My Xslt [1] , and the Xml being transformed [2].  The original xml
file is quite big, but i have trimmed it down to demonstrate the
problem. I guess I am missing something simple :-(

(Using saxon 9)

[1] -- Xslt -- refName is always set to blank

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
      <xsl:output indent="yes" method="xml" encoding="UTF-8"/>

  <xsl:variable name="refName">
      <xsl:value-of select="//meta[(_at_)id='judgementNo']/@href" />
  </xsl:variable>

      <xsl:template match="/">
              <xsl:apply-templates/>
      </xsl:template>


      <xsl:template match="*">
              <xsl:element name="{node-name(.)}">
                      <xsl:for-each select="@*">
                              <xsl:attribute name="{name(.)}">
                                      <xsl:value-of select="."/>
                              </xsl:attribute>
                      </xsl:for-each>
                      <xsl:apply-templates/>
              </xsl:element>
      </xsl:template>


      <xsl:template match="*[(_at_)name='ref']">
                      <metavalue>
                              <xsl:attribute
name="test"><xsl:value-of select="$refName"
/></xsl:attribute>
                      </metavalue>
              </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>


[2] Xml file being transformed :
