SVG uses the namespace http://www.w3.org/2000/svg (if I remember that correctly) so doing
  //rect
which selects elements with local name 'rect' in no namespace does not select any SVG 'rect' elements.

With XSLT 1.0 you need to bind a prefix to the namespace URI and use that prefix to qualify element names e.g.

  <xsl:value-of
    xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg";
    value-of select="document(...)//svg:rect[...]/@x"/>

Usually you would however move that namespace declaration to the xsl:stylesheet element and not put it on the xsl:value element.
